The EX-FS10 because of its smaller sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field harder and the Samsung NX210 will result in more detail having its extra 11 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more aged EX-FS10 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
