As you can tell, each of these cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The E-M1 II featuring a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field simpler and the Olympus E-M1 II will deliver extra detail as a result of its extra 6MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs a little more aggressively. The newer E-M1 II should have a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
