As you can see, both of those cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The C140 with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF trickier and the Olympus SH-50 will render more detail using its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images more aggressively. The more aged C140 will be behind with regard to sensor technology.
