As you have seen, both of these cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The FP7 featuring a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field trickier and the Samsung NX2000 will give you extra detail having its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images far more aggressively. The older FP7 is going to be behind in sensor tech.
