Oftentimes, it is very tough to envision the gap in sensor sizing simply by viewing a spec sheet. The visual here will provide you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the 4000D and 40D.

As you can see, the two cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same megapixels. You can count on the Canon 4000D to result in extra detail due to its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more modern 4000D will have an advantage in sensor innovation.
