To sum up, the 2 cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The EX-ZR100 having a tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field more difficult and the Olympus E-M10 III will offer extra detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The older EX-ZR100 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
