As you can tell, both of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The 4000D using its larger sensor will make achieving shallower DOF less difficult and the Canon 4000D will render extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos way more aggressively. The more recent 4000D is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
