Canon 4000D vs Canon 70D Sensor Comparison
More often than not, it is very tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizing only by reviewing specifications. The graphic below will offer you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 4000D and 70D.
To sum up, both cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Canon 70D to offer greater detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop photos way more aggressively. The more modern 4000D is going to have an edge in sensor tech.
