Typically, it's difficult to picture the gap between sensor measurements merely by checking specs. The graphic here will offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the Quattro and Quattro H.

All in all, both of those cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Quattro having a tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field trickier and the Sigma Quattro H will give more detail having an extra 16 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively.
