The Quattro H was introduced 7 years later than the W220 and that is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of the cameras have different body design with the Sigma Quattro H being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Sony W220 being a Compact camera.

Before going right into a detailed comparison, here is a short introduction of how the Quattro H matches up against the W220 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Sigma sd Quattro H and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W220. The whole galleries are available at Sigma Quattro H Gallery and Sony W220 Gallery.

For those who are going to lug around your camera, you will need to factor its weight and dimensions. The Sigma Quattro H provides outside measurements of 147mm x 95mm x 91mm (5.8" x 3.7" x 3.6") having a weight of n/a grams (0.00 lbs) and the Sony W220 has dimensions of 95mm x 57mm x 22mm (3.7" x 2.2" x 0.9") having a weight of 147 grams (0.32 lbs).

Bear in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change dependant on the lens you are working with at that time. Here is a front view physical size comparison of the Quattro H against the W220.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the Quattro H and W220 is 78 and 95 respectively.

Sometimes, it's tough to visualize the gap in sensor measurements merely by going through a spec sheet. The graphic here may give you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the Quattro H and W220.

As you can see, both of the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Quattro H with its bigger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh less difficult and the Sigma Quattro H will provide extra detail using its extra 33MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop pictures more aggressively. The younger Quattro H should have an advantage in sensor innovation.
