Canon T6s vs Pentax K100D S Sensor Comparison
More often than not, its difficult to see the difference in sensor sizing only by looking through a spec sheet. The graphic underneath will help offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the T6s and K100D S.
Clearly, both cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same resolution. You can expect to see the Canon T6s to result in extra detail utilizing its extra 18 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The younger T6s is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
