The GR was announced 4 years after the T90 which is a fairly significant gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Each of the cameras come with different body type with the Ricoh GR being a Large Sensor Compact camera and the Sony T90 being a Ultracompact camera.

Before diving in to a full comparison, below is a short view of how the GR grades versus the T90 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

This is a sample of the gallery pictures for Ricoh GR and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T90. The whole galleries are viewable at Ricoh GR Gallery and Sony T90 Gallery.

When you are planning to carry around your camera frequently, you need to think about its weight and measurements.

Often, its hard to visualise the gap in sensor sizes simply by viewing a spec sheet. The image below may offer you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the GR and T90.

As you can see, both of those cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The GR with its larger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field less difficult and the Ricoh GR will render extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more modern GR will have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
