As you can tell, both the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The DV300F using its tinier sensor will make getting shallower DOF more difficult and the Sony RX100 VI will resolve more detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs far more aggressively. The more aged DV300F is going to be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
