Canon 4000D vs Nikon D3300 Sensor Comparison
Often, it is very difficult to picture the gap in sensor sizes merely by seeing technical specs. The pic here will offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the 4000D and D3300.
As you have seen, each of the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but different resolution. You should anticipate the Nikon D3300 to produce more detail having an extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images a little more aggressively. The younger 4000D should have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
