Quite often, it's tough to envision the contrast in sensor measurements merely by going through specs. The photograph here may offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the E-M10 and SP-620 UZ.

As you can plainly see, both of those cameras have the same megapixels but not the same sensor measurements. The E-M10 includes the larger sensor which should make getting bokeh easier. The fresher E-M10 will have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
