As you can tell, both of those cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The S-1 using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving bokeh trickier and the Samsung NX2000 will give more detail having an extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots far more aggressively. The more recent S-1 provides a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
