Quite often, it's hard to envision the difference between sensor sizing purely by reading specs. The photograph here will provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the AV200 and NX2000.

As you can plainly see, both of those cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The AV200 due to its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF harder and the Samsung NX2000 will offer extra detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics more aggressively. The older AV200 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
