Normally, it is difficult to see the difference in sensor dimensions simply by seeing specifications. The picture below should provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the E-M10 III and E-P7.

To sum up, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You should expect to see the Olympus E-P7 to provide greater detail utilizing its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also let you crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more aged E-M10 III will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
