As you can tell, the two cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit different resolution. You should count on the Sony W830 to offer greater detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged T99 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
