Canon T8i vs Panasonic 3D1 Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is very tough to picture the gap between sensor sizes simply by reading a spec sheet. The picture underneath will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the T8i and 3D1.

Clearly, the 2 cameras have different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The T8i with its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Canon T8i will offer extra detail using its extra 12 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics a bit more aggressively. The more recent T8i should have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
