The Quattro was brought out 4 years after the NEX-5N which is quite a significant gap as far as technology is concerned. Both cameras come with the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before diving straight into a full comparison, below is a brief synopsis of how the Quattro grades versus the NEX-5N with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Sigma sd Quattro and Sony Alpha NEX-5N. The entire galleries are available at Sigma Quattro Gallery and Sony NEX-5N Gallery.

In case you're looking to travel with your camera regularly, you will have to factor its weight and proportions.

Typically, it's hard to picture the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by looking at technical specs. The image here might provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the Quattro and NEX-5N.

As you have seen, both of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different megapixels. You should count on the Sigma Quattro to give extra detail having its extra 13MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more modern Quattro should have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
