As you can see, each of the cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The RX10 III having a larger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field simpler and the Sony RX10 III will produce more detail with its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop pics far more aggressively. The more recent RX10 III is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
