Samsung NX2000 vs Sony TX200V Sensor Comparison

Generally, it is very difficult to imagine the contrast in sensor sizes purely by viewing specifications. The pic below may offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the NX2000 and TX200V.

Plainly, the 2 cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The NX2000 featuring a larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Samsung NX2000 will render more detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop images more aggressively. The fresher NX2000 should have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
