Canon 100D vs Canon T7i

Let's look a little more in depth at the Canon 100D versus Canon T7i, both Entry-Level DSLR cameras and they are both sold by Canon. There exists a significant gap among the sensor resolutions of the 100D (18MP) and T7i (24MP) but both cameras have the identical sensor dimensions (APS-C).

Sometimes, its difficult to visualize the contrast in sensor measurements only by viewing a spec sheet. The photograph below will offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the 100D and T7i.

As you can see, the two cameras come with the identical sensor size but different resolution. You should expect to see the Canon T7i to render more detail due to its extra 6MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The older 100D will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
