Olympus FE-45 vs Panasonic G95 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very hard to visualize the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by reading specifications. The pic here might offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the FE-45 and G95.

To sum up, the 2 cameras have different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The FE-45 because of its tinier sensor is going to make shooting bokeh harder and the Panasonic G95 will deliver more detail as a result of its extra 10.3 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop shots a bit more aggressively. The more aged FE-45 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
