More often than not, its tough to see the contrast between sensor sizes simply by reading through a spec sheet. The image here may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the PX and Quattro.

Clearly, both cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The PX having a tinier sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Sigma Quattro will give you more detail with its extra 13 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images way more aggressively. The more aged PX is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
