Plainly, both the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The P100 because of its tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field harder and the Sony RX10 III will offer you greater detail having its extra 10MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics far more aggressively. The older P100 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
