Samsung NX2000 has a
20.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.7 mm ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Sony NEX-F3 has a
16.0MP APS-C (23.4 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Bionz processor.
Below you can see the NX2000 and NEX-F3 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Samsung NX2000 and Sony NEX-F3 Cameras
Samsung NX2000 and Sony NEX-F3 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 Samsung NX2000 and Sony NEX-F3 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, NX2000 has scored 75, 2 points higher than NEX-F3.

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
Samsung NX2000
or the
Sony NEX-F3 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
