Quite often, it is difficult to picture the contrast between sensor dimensions simply by reading technical specs. The picture underneath will help provide you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 300D and M6.

As you can tell, each of the cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but different resolution. You can expect to see the Canon M6 to offer you greater detail because of its extra 18 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop images far more aggressively. The more aged 300D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
