Canon 6D vs Canon T7

Following is a extended assessment of the Canon 6D vs Canon T7, former is a Advanced DSLR while the latter is a Entry-Level DSLR and they are both created by Canon. The resolution of the 6D (20MP) and the T7 (24MP) is relatively well matched but the 6D (Full frame) and T7 (APS-C) come with totally different sensor size.

The 6D was revealed 6 years earlier than the T7 which is quite a large difference as far as tech is concerned. Both the cameras offer different body type with the Canon 6D being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Canon T7 being a Compact SLR camera.

Before getting through a full comparison, below is a quick view of how the 6D grades against the T7 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 6D & Canon EOS Rebel T7. The full galleries are provided at Canon 6D Gallery & Canon T7 Gallery.

If you are going to carry around your camera frequently, you'll need to think about its weight and volume.

In many cases, it is very difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes only by reading through specs. The picture below will offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the 6D and T7.

All in all, both of those cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The 6D having a bigger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field easier and the Canon T7 will give greater detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots a little more aggressively. The more aged 6D is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
