As you have seen, the 2 cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The EX-S7 using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field harder and the Samsung NX200 will give greater detail with its extra 8MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics much more aggressively. The more aged EX-S7 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
