The A10 was announced 3 years after the TX20 which is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. Both of the cameras come with the identical body type (Ultracompact).

Before we go in to a in-depth comparison, below is a simple view of how the A10 matches up versus the TX20 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon Coolpix A10 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX20. The whole galleries are viewable at Nikon A10 Gallery and Sony TX20 Gallery.

Clearly, each of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements and the identical resolution and you should expect similar quality of files but you may want to factor the release date of the products into consideration. The more recent A10 is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
