Olympus VG-110 vs Olympus VR-340 Sensor Comparison

Normally, it is difficult to see the gap between sensor dimensions just by looking at specifications. The image underneath might give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the VG-110 and VR-340.

Plainly, both the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same MP. You should anticipate the Olympus VR-340 to give more detail utilizing its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos more aggressively. The more aged VG-110 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
