Sometimes, its hard to see the difference in sensor dimensions purely by checking out a spec sheet. The picture underneath will help provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the R50 and NX2000.
As you can see, both of the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Canon R50 to produce greater detail due to its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop photos a little more aggressively. The more modern R50 is going to have an edge in sensor technology.
