I think ull get better fuel efficiency with the Camry but dont forget that the Camry 2.0L is underpowered so FC will suffer a bit. At 110kmph, the Camry's RPM is at 1750 while the Optima's RPM is at 2250. The Optima's gear ratio is set higher to cater for more power while the Camry is set for fuel economy.

But u gotta look at it from a braoder aspect. Many other criteria's to consider. You can also refer to this thread for more info:

Hey, for a young adult around 25 years old, to buy a 2012 Camry or 2011 Optima k5?
Which one is more worth it and with better features and performance?

I may get shot for saying this, but for your age of 25, better dont drive a camry. Optima K5 is also slightly bordering on the "uncle-ness" due to the classification of these 2 cars. But if between these 2, definately the K5 for being sportier. Camry is seriously too uncle-ish
