Canon M6 vs Sigma Quattro H Sensor Comparison

As you can plainly see, both of these cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The M6 because of its smaller sensor is going to make achieving bokeh more challenging and the Sigma Quattro H will provide more detail as a result of its extra 21 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The younger M6 should have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
