More often than not, it's tough to envision the difference between sensor dimensions merely by checking technical specs. The image here will help give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the M575 and TX30.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same resolution. You can expect to see the Sony TX30 to give extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more aged M575 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
