Nikon P7700 vs Olympus FE-4030 Sensor Comparison
More often than not, it is very difficult to picture the gap in sensor measurements merely by seeing technical specs. The visual below might provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the P7700 and FE-4030.
As you have seen, both of those cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The P7700 using its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Olympus FE-4030 will produce extra detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more recent P7700 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
