Canon 100D vs Canon T6i Sensor Comparison

Typically, its difficult to envision the difference between sensor measurements simply by looking at specs. The photograph here should give you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the 100D and T6i.

As you can plainly see, both of the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same MP. You can expect to see the Canon T6i to give you more detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop pics a little more aggressively. The older 100D is going to be behind with regard to sensor technology.
