Oftentimes, it can be difficult to picture the gap between sensor dimensions merely by looking at technical specs. The image underneath will provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the E-410 and VR-320.

As you can tell, both cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The E-410 having a larger sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field less difficult and the Olympus VR-320 will resolve extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The more aged E-410 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
