Quite often, it is very hard to visualize the gap between sensor sizes merely by checking specs. The pic here may offer you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the FE-4030 and VG-110.

As you can plainly see, both the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but different resolution. You should expect to see the Olympus FE-4030 to give more detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop photos a little more aggressively. The more aged FE-4030 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
