All in all, the 2 cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm XF1 with its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field simpler and the Olympus VR-320 will render greater detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs much more aggressively. The newer Fujifilm XF1 is going to have a benefit in sensor innovation.
