Quite often, it is very tough to visualise the gap in sensor dimensions merely by going through a spec sheet. The picture below may provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the FE-47 and K110D.

As you can see, both of these cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The FE-47 having a smaller sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Olympus FE-47 will provide extra detail using its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics a little more aggressively. The more recent FE-47 is going to have an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
