As you have seen, both cameras have different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Quattro H due to its bigger sensor will make shooting shallow DOF less difficult and the Sigma Quattro H will render more detail utilizing its extra 25 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The older Quattro H will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
