In many cases, it can be hard to see the gap in sensor sizes simply by looking through technical specs. The pic underneath will provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the OM System OM-5 and G95.
As you can tell, both of these cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same megapixels. You can count on the Panasonic G95 to render more detail because of its extra 0.3MP. Higher resolution will let you crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The fresher OM System OM-5 is going to have an advantage in sensor technology.
