The SL2 having a larger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Canon SL2 will give more detail because of its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics a little more aggressively. The younger SL2 should have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
