The Z5 was introduced 11 years after the E-620 which is quite a significant gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras feature different body design with the Nikon Z5 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Olympus E-620 being a Compact SLR camera.

Before getting right into a complete comparison, here is a brief synopsis of how the Z5 matches up versus the E-620 for portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Following is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon Z5 and Olympus E-620. The whole galleries are viewable at Nikon Z5 Gallery and Olympus E-620 Gallery.

Normally, it can be difficult to visualize the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by looking at technical specs. The pic below should give you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the Z5 and E-620.

As you have seen, both of the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Z5 with its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field easier and the Nikon Z5 will give you greater detail using its extra 12MP. Greater resolution will help you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more recent Z5 should have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
