Clearly, both of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The 750D because of its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field simpler and the Canon 750D will offer more detail having its extra 14 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The newer 750D should have an advantage in sensor technology.
