Typically, it is tough to see the difference in sensor sizing simply by viewing technical specs. The photograph here should provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the E-P7 and NX2000.

As you can tell, each of the cameras come with the identical megapixel count albeit not the same sensor sizing. The E-P7 features the smaller sensor which should make getting bokeh tougher. The more recent E-P7 is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
