The C140 using its tinier sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Olympus TG-610 will offer more detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs much more aggressively. The older C140 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
