Canon 100D vs Canon T6s Sensor Comparison

Generally, it is very hard to visualise the contrast in sensor sizing simply by checking out specs. The graphic here will give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the 100D and T6s.

All in all, the 2 cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Canon T6s to show extra detail due to its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The older 100D will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
