Oftentimes, it is very difficult to visualize the contrast between sensor measurements purely by checking a spec sheet. The visual here will give you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the 350D and D5600.

Clearly, both the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but different megapixels. You should anticipate the Nikon D5600 to give you extra detail having its extra 16MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The older 350D is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
