All in all, both of these cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The FE-47 with its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field more difficult and the Olympus FE-47 will offer greater detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The older FE-47 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
