To sum up, the 2 cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The A3300 IS with its tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Canon A3300 IS will resolve greater detail with its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop images far more aggressively. The more aged A3300 IS is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
