As you have seen, both of those cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The NX2000 using its bigger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Samsung NX2000 will resolve greater detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots far more aggressively. The newer NX2000 will have an edge in sensor tech.
