The E-PL7 was unveiled 5 years earlier than the G95 and that is a fairly large difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Olympus E-PL7 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Panasonic G95 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before getting straight into a complete comparison, below is a concise synopsis of how the E-PL7 matches up versus the G95 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Quite often, it can be hard to imagine the contrast in sensor measurements simply by going through a spec sheet. The photograph here might give you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the E-PL7 and G95.

As you can see, both of those cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different megapixels. You can expect the Panasonic G95 to show more detail having an extra 4.3MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The older E-PL7 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
