Normally, it is hard to visualise the gap in sensor sizing simply by researching technical specs. The photograph below will help give you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the T200 and SH-1.

As you have seen, both of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Olympus SH-1 to render greater detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop images somewhat more aggressively. The older T200 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
