Sensors can vary greatly in size. As a general rule, the bigger the sensor, the better the image quality. Bigger sensors are more effective because they have more surface area to capture light. An important factor when comparing digital cameras is also camera generation. Generally, newer sensors will outperform the older.

Note You are comparing cameras of different generations. There is a 2 year gap between Canon 4000D 2018 and Canon 1300D 2016. All things being equal, newer sensor generations generally outperform the older. Pixel pitch tells you the distance from the center of one pixel photosite to the center of the next. It tells you how close the pixels are to each other. The bigger the pixel pitch, the further apart they are and the bigger each pixel is. Bigger pixels tend to have better signal to noise ratio and greater dynamic range. Difference 0 µm 0% 4000D and 1300D have the same pixel pitch. Pixel area µm² µm² Pixel or photosite area affects how much light per pixel can be gathered. The larger it is the more light can be collected by a single pixel. Larger pixels have the potential to collect more photons, resulting in greater dynamic range, while smaller pixels provide higher resolutions more detail for a given sensor size. Relative pixel sizes Pixel area difference 0 µm² 0% Canon 4000D and Canon 1300D have the same pixel area. Pixel density tells you how many million pixels fit or would fit in one square cm of the sensor. Higher pixel density means smaller pixels and lower pixel density means larger pixels. Difference 0 µm 0% Canon 4000D and Canon 1300D have the same pixel density. To learn about the accuracy of these numbers, click here.

It's slightly higher than maximum not interpolated image resolution which is usually stated on camera specifications. Sensor resolution is used in pixel pitch, pixel area, and pixel density formula. For sake of simplicity, we're going to calculate it in 3 stages. 1. First we need to find the ratio between horizontal and vertical length by dividing the former with the latter aspect ratio. It's usually 43 or 32, but not always. 2. With the ratio r known we can calculate the X from the formula below, where X is a vertical number of pixels X × r × X = effective megapixels × 1000000 → X = √ effective megapixels × 1000000 r 3. To get sensor resolution we then multiply X with the corresponding ratio Resolution horizontal X × r Resolution vertical X 4000D sensor resolution Sensor width = mm Sensor height = mm Effective megapixels = r = = X = √ × 1000000 = 3464 Resolution horizontal X × r = 3464 × = 5196 Resolution vertical X = 3464 Sensor resolution = 5196 x 3464 1300D sensor resolution Sensor width = mm Sensor height = mm Effective megapixels = r = = X = √ × 1000000 = 3464 Resolution horizontal X × r = 3464 × = 5196 Resolution vertical X = 3464 Sensor resolution = 5196 x 3464 Crop factor Crop factor or focal length multiplier is calculated by dividing the diagonal of 35 mm film mm with the diagonal of the sensor.
