Sony A450 has a
14.0MP APS-C (23.4 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Bionz processor. On the other hand, Canon T6 has a
18.0MP APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 4+ processor.
Below you can see the A450 and T6 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Sony A450 and Canon T6 Cameras
Sony A450 and Canon T6 have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.

Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Sony A450
or the
Canon T6 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
