Here is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon Coolpix L28 and Olympus FE-47. The full galleries are available at Nikon L28 Gallery and Olympus FE-47 Gallery.

Typically, its tough to picture the difference in sensor measurements merely by viewing a spec sheet. The graphic here might provide you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the L28 and FE-47.

Clearly, both of those cameras have the same sensor dimensions but different megapixels. You should expect to see the Nikon L28 to result in extra detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop photos a bit more aggressively. The younger L28 should have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
