Olympus 1 vs Olympus 6000 Overview
Let's look much closer at the Olympus 1 and Olympus 6000, one being a Small Sensor Superzoom and the latter is a Small Sensor Compact and they are both manufactured by Olympus. The image resolution of the 1 (12MP) and the 6000 (10MP) is relatively comparable but the 1 (1/1.7") and 6000 (1/2.3") enjoy different sensor size.
Sora from OpenAI releases its first ever music videoThe 1 was released 4 years later than the 6000 and that is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Olympus 1 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera and the Olympus 6000 being a Compact camera.
Before we go through a in-depth comparison, below is a concise view of how the 1 matches up versus the 6000 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

As you have seen, both of these cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 1 because of its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF less difficult and the Olympus 1 will provide greater detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots much more aggressively. The more modern 1 should have an advantage in sensor innovation.
