Sometimes, it's difficult to visualize the gap between sensor sizes just by looking at technical specs. The pic here should offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the TG-610 and GR Digital III.

As you have seen, both the cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The TG-610 because of its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field more challenging and the Olympus TG-610 will give extra detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs much more aggressively. The more recent TG-610 should have a benefit in sensor tech.
