Plainly, each of these cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The WG-M1 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF trickier and the Sigma Quattro H will result in greater detail as a result of its extra 31 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs much more aggressively. The more aged WG-M1 will be behind in sensor innovation.
