The T6s was announced 8 years prior to the KF and that is a fairly sizable gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (Compact SLR).

Before we go right into a in depth comparison, here is a short synopsis of how the T6s scores vs the KF in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS Rebel T6s and Pentax KF. The whole galleries are provided at Canon T6s Gallery and Pentax KF Gallery.

In case you're planning to lug around your camera frequently, you will have to think about its weight and size.

Normally, it's hard to envision the difference in sensor measurements merely by viewing specs. The visual below should offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the T6s and KF.

All in all, the two cameras feature the identical sensor size and the identical MP and you should expect comparable quality of photographs but you have to take the release date of the cameras into account. The older T6s will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
