Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the P7100 and 9000 is 82 and 92 respectively.

Typically, it's difficult to visualize the gap in sensor sizing just by researching technical specs. The visual underneath may give you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the P7100 and 9000.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The P7100 having a bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field simpler and the Olympus 9000 will result in extra detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The younger P7100 should have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
