Generally, it's hard to visualise the gap between sensor sizes purely by reading through specifications. The picture below should give you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the E-620 and K-1 II.

To sum up, each of the cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The E-620 using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow DOF more challenging and the Pentax K-1 II will resolve extra detail using its extra 24MP. Greater resolution will let you crop photos more aggressively. The more aged E-620 is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
