In many cases, it's difficult to imagine the contrast between sensor sizing just by reading through a spec sheet. The visual here should provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the SH-1 and TG-310.

Clearly, both the cameras feature the identical sensor size but different resolution. You should anticipate the Olympus SH-1 to resolve greater detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos way more aggressively. The more modern SH-1 should have an advantage in sensor innovation.
