Clearly, both of the cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The P7100 due to its larger sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field less difficult and the Olympus SP-610UZ will give you extra detail due to its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop images much more aggressively. The newer P7100 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
