Sometimes, it can be hard to visualize the contrast between sensor measurements purely by checking specifications. The visual here will provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the A900 and A77.

Plainly, both the cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The A900 using its larger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Sony A900 will give you more detail using its extra 1 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older A900 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
