Quite often, it's hard to picture the gap between sensor dimensions only by reading through a spec sheet. The image below will give you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the JZ300 and VR-340.

Clearly, both of those cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but different MP. You can expect to see the Olympus VR-340 to give you extra detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics more aggressively. The more aged JZ300 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
