Plainly, both of those cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The 1200D due to its tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field trickier and the Canon R6 will resolve extra detail utilizing its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos more aggressively. The more aged 1200D is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
