Quite often, it is very difficult to imagine the contrast in sensor sizing merely by researching a spec sheet. The visual underneath will give you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the E-M5 III and FH6.

Clearly, each of the cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The E-M5 III because of its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Olympus E-M5 III will render greater detail due to its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop shots a little more aggressively. The more modern E-M5 III should have a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
