Plainly, each of the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The TL500 because of its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Sony TX55 will result in greater detail as a result of its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more aged TL500 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
