OM System OM-1 vs Olympus E-M10 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Quite often, it is hard to visualize the difference in sensor dimensions merely by viewing a spec sheet. The pic underneath might offer you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the OM System OM-1 and E-M10.
Clearly, both of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit different resolution. You should count on the OM System OM-1 to render extra detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop pictures much more aggressively. The more recent OM System OM-1 should have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
