Often, it is difficult to imagine the difference between sensor measurements only by reading specifications. The visual here will offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the 7010 and K10D.

Plainly, both cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 7010 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field tougher and the Olympus 7010 will offer more detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures more aggressively. The newer 7010 provides an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
