Oftentimes, its tough to visualise the gap in sensor dimensions merely by going through specifications. The pic underneath will provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the QX1 and A6600.

Plainly, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You can count on the Sony A6600 to produce more detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more aged QX1 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
