Canon 450D vs Canon T6s Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is tough to visualise the gap between sensor measurements just by checking a spec sheet. The photograph below should offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the 450D and T6s.

As you can see, both the cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same resolution. You can count on the Canon T6s to give extra detail because of its extra 12MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop pictures way more aggressively. The older 450D is going to be behind in sensor tech.
