Often, it's tough to visualize the gap between sensor dimensions simply by going over specifications. The image below may provide you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the E-PM2 and PEN-F.

To sum up, both of those cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit different megapixels. You should count on the Olympus PEN-F to deliver more detail having its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged E-PM2 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
