As you have seen, both of those cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The TG-810 due to its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Olympus TG-810 will render extra detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos far more aggressively. The younger TG-810 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
