Often, it is very difficult to envision the contrast between sensor measurements purely by going over technical specs. The photograph below will offer you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the 6D and WB350F.

As you have seen, both of these cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The 6D featuring a bigger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF simpler and the Canon 6D will deliver more detail utilizing its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The older 6D is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
