Canon 700D vs Sony A380 Sensor Comparison
Quite often, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor sizes only by looking at specifications. The pic below will offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the 700D and A380.
To sum up, both cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Canon 700D to give more detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs more aggressively. The newer 700D is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
