Usually, it can be hard to picture the difference between sensor dimensions purely by going over a spec sheet. The pic underneath might provide you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the P900 and NX1000.

Clearly, both of the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The P900 having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field harder and the Samsung NX1000 will offer extra detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more modern P900 provides an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
