As you can tell, the two cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit different resolution. You can expect the Canon T8i to give extra detail as a result of its extra 16 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs far more aggressively. The more aged 350D is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
