Canon SL3 vs Canon T6s

On this page, we are matching up the Canon SL3 vs Canon T6s, both Entry-Level DSLR digital cameras and both are offered by Canon. The resolution of the SL3 (24MP) and the T6s (24MP) is very well matched and both cameras posses the same sensor measurements (APS-C).

The SL3 was launched 4 years later than the T6s and that is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. Both of the cameras have the same body design (Compact SLR).

Before getting into a step-by-step comparison, here is a simple overview of how the SL3 matches up versus the T6s when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

This is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon EOS Rebel SL3 and Canon EOS Rebel T6s. The complete galleries are provided at Canon SL3 Gallery and Canon T6s Gallery.

If you're looking to carry your camera, you will have to factor in its weight and proportions. The Canon SL3 enjoys physical measurements of 122mm x 93mm x 70mm (4.8" x 3.7" x 2.8") with a weight of 449 grams (0.99 lbs) while the Canon T6s has measurements of 132mm x 101mm x 78mm (5.2" x 4.0" x 3.1") having a weight of 565 grams (1.25 lbs).

Take a look at the Canon SL3 vs Canon T6s in the new Camera and Lens Size Comparison Tool.

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you have chosen at the time. The following is a front view measurement comparison of the SL3 and the T6s.

Quite often, it's difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor sizing simply by checking a spec sheet. The graphic underneath should give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the SL3 and T6s.

Clearly, both of the cameras have the same sensor dimensions and the identical megapixels so you should expect similar quality of images though you need to factor the production date of the products into consideration. The newer SL3 will have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
