Below you can see the 7040 and VH-410 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Olympus 7040 and Olympus VH-410 Cameras
Olympus 7040 and Olympus VH-410 have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.
Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Olympus 7040
or the
Olympus VH-410 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
