Plainly, both of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You should anticipate the Samsung NX20 to provide you with greater detail having an extra 14 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm S5 Pro will be behind in sensor innovation.
