To sum up, the 2 cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Olympus E-M10 to offer you more detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more recent E-M10 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
