Oftentimes, it is very hard to envision the contrast in sensor dimensions purely by looking through a spec sheet. The image below may give you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-ZR10 and VH-410.

Clearly, the 2 cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You can count on the Olympus VH-410 to provide you with greater detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The more aged EX-ZR10 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
