All in all, both of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The ST6500 using its smaller sensor is going to make getting bokeh more difficult and the Sony RX100 VI will produce more detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more aged ST6500 will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
