To sum up, both of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The WB750 because of its smaller sensor will make achieving shallow DOF more difficult and the Sony RX10 III will result in more detail due to its extra 7MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The more aged WB750 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
