Clearly, both of the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The 4000D due to its larger sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF easier and the Canon G9 X II will provide you with extra detail having its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The newer 4000D should have an advantage in sensor technology.
