More often than not, it can be hard to imagine the contrast in sensor sizes simply by viewing technical specs. The image underneath will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the VG-110 and RX10 IV.

As you can tell, both the cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The VG-110 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF trickier and the Sony RX10 IV will render extra detail as a result of its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more aged VG-110 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
