Clearly, both of those cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The HZ10W with its tinier sensor will make shooting shallower DOF more challenging and the Sony A35 will offer you more detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop shots far more aggressively. The older HZ10W is going to be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
