Canon 1200D vs Canon T6

Below is a thorough review of the Canon 1200D vs Canon T6, both Entry-Level DSLR digital cameras and both of them are created by Canon. The sensor resolution of the 1200D (18MP) and the T6 (18MP) is fairly similar and both cameras offer the identical sensor measurements (APS-C).

The 1200D was announced 3 years before the T6 and that is quite a big difference as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Compact SLR).

Before getting right into a full comparison, here is a short introduction of how the 1200D grades against the T6 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 1200D & Canon EOS T6. The whole galleries are viewable at Canon 1200D Gallery & Canon T6 Gallery.

If you're aiming to lug around your camera often, you'll need to factor in its weight and measurements. The Canon 1200D has got outer dimensions of 130mm x 100mm x 78mm (5.1" x 3.9" x 3.1") with a weight of 480 grams (1.06 lbs) whilst the Canon T6 has proportions of 129mm x 101mm x 78mm (5.1" x 4.0" x 3.1") having a weight of 485 grams (1.07 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an ILC will change based on the lens you choose at the time. Underneath is a front view physical size comparison of the 1200D vs the T6.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the 1200D and T6 is 68 and 68 respectively.

Sometimes, it's tough to see the gap between sensor measurements merely by reading technical specs. The graphic underneath may give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the 1200D and T6.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras come with the identical sensor size and the identical resolution therefore you can expect similar quality of files but you really should factor the launch date of the products into consideration. The older 1200D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
