Sometimes, it is very tough to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions just by checking specifications. The image here should provide you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm Real 3D W1 and NX30.

Plainly, both of the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm Real 3D W1 because of its tinier sensor will make achieving shallower DOF more difficult and the Samsung NX30 will give extra detail as a result of its extra 10MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop shots far more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm Real 3D W1 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
