Typically, it can be hard to see the gap between sensor measurements purely by reviewing specifications. The photograph here may provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the NX3000 and H400.

Plainly, each of the cameras feature the identical megapixel count but not the same sensor measurements. The NX3000 includes the larger sensor which should make getting shallower DOF less difficult.
