As you can see, both of the cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit different resolution. You should expect the Nikon A900 to offer more detail due to its extra 8MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The younger A900 provides an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
