Normally, it's tough to visualise the difference in sensor sizing simply by researching a spec sheet. The visual underneath will provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the SL3 and A330.

As you can see, both of those cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Canon SL3 to render extra detail as a result of its extra 14MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The newer SL3 will have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
