Oftentimes, it can be tough to imagine the gap in sensor sizes simply by viewing specs. The picture below should offer you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the T8i and E-600.

All in all, both of those cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The T8i using its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Canon T8i will render extra detail having an extra 12 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures way more aggressively. The younger T8i provides an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
