Casio EX-S7 vs Samsung NX2000 Sensor Comparison

Often, it's difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements purely by checking a spec sheet. The visual here should offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-S7 and NX2000.

Clearly, each of these cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The EX-S7 having a tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF more difficult and the Samsung NX2000 will give you more detail having an extra 8MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older EX-S7 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
