Quite often, it is very tough to see the contrast between sensor sizing merely by looking at a spec sheet. The graphic here should provide you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the VG-145 and GXR S10 24-72mm F2.5-4.4 VC.
Clearly, both the cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The VG-145 having a tinier sensor will make shooting bokeh trickier and the Olympus VG-145 will give more detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots more aggressively. The more recent VG-145 will have an advantage in sensor tech.
