Sometimes, it is very difficult to envision the gap between sensor measurements merely by looking at a spec sheet. The visual here will offer you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the WG-3 GPS and T99.

Clearly, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You can expect the Pentax WG-3 GPS to give you extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The younger WG-3 GPS will have an advantage in sensor innovation.
