More often than not, it is very difficult to visualise the contrast in sensor measurements simply by checking out technical specs. The visual here will help provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm A150 and SP-800 UZ.

As you can tell, both of the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You should expect to see the Olympus SP-800 UZ to provide extra detail with its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also let you crop images much more aggressively. The older Fujifilm A150 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
