Normally, it can be difficult to imagine the gap in sensor dimensions purely by checking out a spec sheet. The image here may offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm JV150 and NX300.

As you can see, the two cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm JV150 with its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field trickier and the Samsung NX300 will produce more detail with its extra 6MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm JV150 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
