To sum up, both of the cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The A6300 due to its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Sony A6300 will provide greater detail as a result of its extra 15 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The fresher A6300 should have an advantage in sensor innovation.
