The HS10 was manufactured 5 years earlier than the RX10 II which is a fairly large gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both cameras have the same body design (SLR-like (bridge)).

Before getting right into a detailed comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the HS10 scores vs the RX10 II in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Keep in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you have attached at that time. The following is a front view scale comparison of the HS10 against the RX10 II.

Factoring in size and weight, the portability grade of the HS10 and RX10 II is 60 and 58 respectively.

Generally, it's difficult to see the gap in sensor sizes purely by going through technical specs. The pic here will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the HS10 and RX10 II.

As you have seen, both of the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The HS10 featuring a smaller sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field trickier and the Sony RX10 II will show greater detail due to its extra 10MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more aged HS10 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
