In many cases, it's tough to visualise the difference in sensor dimensions purely by researching a spec sheet. The pic below should give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the G95 and A99.

Clearly, both cameras have different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The G95 because of its smaller sensor will make getting shallower DOF trickier and the Sony A99 will render more detail as a result of its extra 3.7MP. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The newer G95 will have an edge in sensor technology.
