The DV300F because of its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Samsung NX210 will provide you with greater detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The older DV300F will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
