Quite often, it can be hard to visualize the difference in sensor sizes only by researching technical specs. The image underneath will help offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the E-330 and K200D.

As you have seen, both the cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The E-330 having a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Pentax K200D will result in more detail using its extra 3 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more aged E-330 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
