Canon A3500 IS vs Samsung TL350 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Normally, it is very tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes just by looking at specs. The image underneath may offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the A3500 IS and TL350.
All in all, both the cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same megapixels. You can expect the Canon A3500 IS to give you more detail using its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The more recent A3500 IS will have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
