All in all, both cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the Sigma Quattro to resolve greater detail as a result of its extra 9 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs far more aggressively. The more aged NX20 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
