Usually, it can be tough to visualise the gap between sensor sizes just by looking at a spec sheet. The image below will help provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 4000D and A68.

Clearly, each of the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same megapixels. You can expect the Sony A68 to give you extra detail as a result of its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop pictures more aggressively. The more recent 4000D will have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
