Normally, it's tough to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements only by checking specifications. The visual below will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the 1 S1 and T900.

To sum up, both the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 1 S1 due to its bigger sensor will make shooting bokeh simpler and the Sony T900 will resolve more detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more modern 1 S1 is going to have an advantage in sensor innovation.
