Sony NEX-5T has a
16.0MP APS-C (23.4 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Bionz 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 NEX-5T and NX2000 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Sony NEX-5T and Samsung NX2000 Cameras
Sony NEX-5T 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 Sony NEX-5T 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, NEX-5T has scored 78, 3 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
Sony NEX-5T
or the
Samsung NX2000 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
