The H300 was manufactured 3 years after the T99 which is a fairly big gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both the cameras have different body design with the Sony H300 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera and the Sony T99 being a Ultracompact camera.

Before diving into a comprehensive comparison, here is a short synopsis of how the H300 matches up against the T99 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a preview of the gallery images for Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H300 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T99. The entire galleries are provided at Sony H300 Gallery and Sony T99 Gallery.

In many cases, it is very tough to imagine the gap in sensor dimensions just by going through a spec sheet. The image underneath should give you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the H300 and T99.

As you can see, the two cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit different resolution. You should expect the Sony H300 to provide extra detail due to its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures more aggressively. The more modern H300 should have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
