Aditya,
Good and bad really depends on what you want to do with the camera. I'll outline some of the differences below (the H9 will be listed first):
- Megapixels: 8.1 vs 10
More megapixels gets you a sharper picture
- Optical zoom: 15x vs 3x
More optical zoom gets a higher quality zoom amount for the camera
- ISO: 80-3200 vs 100-1600
Higher ISO levels allow for better shooting in lower light. Lower levels allow for less "noise" or granulation in the photo
These are the major differences. Personally, I would choose the H9 because of the higher optical zoom and the larger ISO availability. The lower resolution isn't that much of a problem for me because at 8.1 MP, you can still print poster size photos. I hope this helps.
