Normally, it is difficult to imagine the gap in sensor sizing just by going through technical specs. The photograph here should offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the M580 and Z915.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras come with the identical sensor size but different MP. You should anticipate the Kodak M580 to show extra detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The newer M580 should have a benefit in sensor tech.
