Sometimes, it is very hard to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by reading through specifications. The pic below will help offer you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the T7 and K100D.

To sum up, each of these cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Canon T7 to give you greater detail as a result of its extra 18MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots far more aggressively. The younger T7 is going to have an advantage in sensor tech.
