Canon 750D vs Canon SX30 IS Sensor Comparison

All in all, both of the cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 750D featuring a bigger sensor will make getting shallower depth of field simpler and the Canon 750D will resolve greater detail due to its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs way more aggressively. The younger 750D is going to have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
