Canon 80D has a
24.0MP APS-C (22.5 x 15 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features DIGIC 6 processor. On the other hand, Samsung NX2000 has a
20.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.7 mm ) sized CMOS sensor .
Below you can see the 80D and NX2000 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon 80D and Samsung NX2000 Cameras
Canon 80D and Samsung NX2000 have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.
DxOMark Sensor Scores
Both Canon 80D and Samsung NX2000 sensors have been tested by DxoMark. DxoMark scores camera sensors for color depth (DXO Portrait), dynamic range (DXO Landscape) and low-light sensitivity (DXO Sports), and also gives them an overall score. Of the two cameras that we are comparing, 80D has scored 79, 4 points higher than NX2000.

Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Canon 80D
or the
Samsung NX2000 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
