Quite often, its tough to see the gap between sensor dimensions merely by looking at technical specs. The pic underneath should provide you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the SZ-11 and H90.

As you have seen, both the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Sony H90 to give greater detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will help you crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more aged SZ-11 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
