Olympus FE-3010 vs Sony W810 Sensor Comparison
In many cases, it is difficult to imagine the gap in sensor sizing just by viewing technical specs. The visual here might offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the FE-3010 and W810.
As you can tell, both the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit different resolution. You can expect the Sony W810 to result in greater detail due to its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs much more aggressively. The older FE-3010 will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
