Quite often, it can be difficult to picture the gap in sensor measurements merely by viewing a spec sheet. The visual underneath may give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the NX3000 and TX200V.

Clearly, both of these cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The NX3000 with its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Samsung NX3000 will result in more detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop photos far more aggressively. The more recent NX3000 provides an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
