Canon 300D vs Canon T6i Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it can be hard to envision the contrast between sensor measurements just by going over specs. The visual underneath will help provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the 300D and T6i.

As you can plainly see, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You can expect to see the Canon T6i to offer greater detail as a result of its extra 18MP. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop images much more aggressively. The older 300D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
