Panasonic GX9 vs Samsung NX200 Sensor Comparison
Typically, it is hard to see the contrast in sensor dimensions merely by researching a spec sheet. The pic here might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the GX9 and NX200.
Clearly, the two cameras come with the identical megapixel count but not the same sensor dimensions. The GX9 comes with the smaller sensor which is going to make achieving shallow depth of field tougher. The more recent GX9 will have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
