The 5010 was revealed 18 months before the VG-145 making the cameras a generation away from each other. Both of the cameras come with the identical body type (Ultracompact).

Before we go through a step-by-step comparison, below is a brief view of how the 5010 grades versus the VG-145 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Olympus Stylus 5010 and Olympus VG-145. The full galleries are available at Olympus 5010 Gallery and Olympus VG-145 Gallery.

For anyone who is looking to carry around your camera regularly, you need to factor in its weight and size. The Olympus 5010 provides external measurements of 95mm x 56mm x 20mm (3.7" x 2.2" x 0.8") accompanied by a weight of 126 grams (0.28 lbs) whilst the Olympus VG-145 has specifications of 96mm x 57mm x 19mm (3.8" x 2.2" x 0.7") along with a weight of 120 grams (0.26 lbs).

Generally, it is difficult to envision the gap in sensor sizes purely by going through specifications. The picture underneath may give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the 5010 and VG-145.

Plainly, both the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements and the same exact resolution therefore you should expect comparable quality of files although you may want to factor the release date of the cameras into account. The more aged 5010 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
