Sometimes, it can be hard to envision the difference in sensor measurements just by viewing a spec sheet. The visual underneath will help offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the 7010 and E70.

Clearly, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Olympus 7010 to result in extra detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics much more aggressively. The newer 7010 is going to have an advantage in sensor technology.
