Sometimes, its difficult to envision the contrast in sensor sizes only by researching specs. The pic underneath may provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the Z915 and TG-310.
All in all, both of these cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Olympus TG-310 to result in greater detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop photos more aggressively. The more aged Z915 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
