Oftentimes, it can be difficult to picture the contrast between sensor sizing purely by going over a spec sheet. The graphic underneath might provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the G7 and K110D.

Clearly, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The G7 using its tinier sensor is going to make getting bokeh more difficult and the Panasonic G7 will offer greater detail with its extra 10MP. Greater resolution will also let you crop images somewhat more aggressively. The newer G7 provides an advantage in sensor innovation.
