Canon T6s vs Sony A330 Sensor Comparison

Generally, it is very tough to visualise the difference in sensor sizing simply by researching specifications. The photograph here should offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the T6s and A330.

Plainly, the 2 cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Canon T6s to result in extra detail as a result of its extra 14 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos way more aggressively. The newer T6s is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
