Generally, it is very hard to visualize the gap between sensor dimensions only by reviewing specifications. The picture underneath will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the 5D MIV and E-330.

Plainly, both of those cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The 5D MIV with its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF easier and the Canon 5D MIV will offer you greater detail using its extra 23 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures much more aggressively. The fresher 5D MIV should have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
