Quite often, it is tough to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions merely by reading a spec sheet. The pic below may provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 1s and VH-410.

Clearly, each of the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The 1s having a larger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh easier and the Olympus VH-410 will offer more detail having an extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics more aggressively. The more recent 1s provides an edge with regard to sensor technology.
