As you can see, each of the cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the Sony TX10 to give more detail having an extra 4MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs far more aggressively. The older TRYX is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
