To sum up, the two cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The FE-5010 with its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field tougher and the Olympus PEN-F will give more detail because of its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more aged FE-5010 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
