Normally, its tough to visualize the difference in sensor sizing only by viewing specifications. The visual underneath might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the TG-810 and S950.

Plainly, both of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different MP. You should expect the Olympus TG-810 to render extra detail having an extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The newer TG-810 should have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
