Clearly, the 2 cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The TX100V featuring a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field more challenging and the Sony A77 II will resolve more detail having its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more aged TX100V is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
