The Quattro H was announced 3 years after the NEX-3N which is quite a large gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before delving into a complete comparison, here is a concise summation of how the Quattro H scores vs the NEX-3N with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Sigma sd Quattro H and Sony Alpha NEX-3N. The whole galleries are provided at Sigma Quattro H Gallery and Sony NEX-3N Gallery.

If you're looking to travel with your camera often, you will want to factor its weight and dimensions. The Sigma Quattro H enjoys outside dimensions of 147mm x 95mm x 91mm (5.8" x 3.7" x 3.6") accompanied by a weight of n/a grams (0.00 lbs) whilst the Sony NEX-3N has dimensions of 110mm x 62mm x 35mm (4.3" x 2.4" x 1.4") and a weight of 269 grams (0.59 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ dependant on the lens you have at that time. Underneath is a front view sizing comparison of the Quattro H compared to the NEX-3N.

Considering dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the Quattro H and NEX-3N is 78 and 89 respectively.

Quite often, its difficult to see the difference between sensor dimensions only by reading a spec sheet. The picture below will help provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Quattro H and NEX-3N.

Clearly, both the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The Quattro H having a larger sensor will make achieving shallow DOF simpler and the Sigma Quattro H will deliver extra detail with its extra 29 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more recent Quattro H is going to have an edge in sensor innovation.
