Canon 6D vs Canon T7i

Its time to examine more closely at the Canon 6D vs Canon T7i, former being a Advanced DSLR while the latter is a Entry-Level DSLR and both are designed by Canon. The image resolution of the 6D (20MP) and the T7i (24MP) is relatively well matched but the 6D (Full frame) and T7i (APS-C) feature different sensor size.

The 6D was announced 5 years before the T7i and that is quite a big difference as far as tech is concerned. Each of these cameras come with the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before delving straight into a in-depth comparison, below is a brief introduction of how the 6D grades against the T7i in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 6D & Canon EOS Rebel T7i. The whole galleries are viewable at Canon 6D Gallery & Canon T7i Gallery.

In case you're looking to lug around your camera, you will need to factor its weight and proportions. The Canon 6D has outer measurements of 145mm x 111mm x 71mm (5.7" x 4.4" x 2.8") and a weight of 770 grams (1.70 lbs) whilst the Canon T7i has measurements of 131mm x 100mm x 76mm (5.2" x 3.9" x 3.0") with a weight of 532 grams (1.17 lbs).

Remember, the weight of an ILC will vary based on the lens you are utilizing during that time. The following is the front view measurement comparison of the 6D compared to the T7i.

Looking at size and weight, the portability score of the 6D and T7i is 59 and 67 respectively.

Oftentimes, it's hard to picture the difference between sensor measurements purely by checking technical specs. The visual below may provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the 6D and T7i.

As you have seen, each of the cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 6D using its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF easier and the Canon T7i will resolve extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop shots much more aggressively. The older 6D is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
