Clearly, both of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Panasonic GX1 to resolve more detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics much more aggressively. The more aged G1 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
