Olympus 9000 vs Panasonic FZ1000 II Sensor Comparison
Normally, it is very tough to picture the contrast between sensor measurements merely by reading technical specs. The graphic here may provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the 9000 and FZ1000 II.
As you have seen, each of the cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The 9000 having a tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Panasonic FZ1000 II will offer you extra detail because of its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop shots far more aggressively. The older 9000 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
