Generally, it is very tough to see the difference between sensor dimensions purely by reading through a spec sheet. The image below might offer you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-FS10 and NX1100.

Clearly, the 2 cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The EX-FS10 due to its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF more difficult and the Samsung NX1100 will give you extra detail having its extra 11MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged EX-FS10 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
