As you have seen, each of these cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Sony TX30 to render more detail having an extra 6MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures a little more aggressively. The older T90 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
