Cropped-frame cameras have a narrower field of vision than their full-frame counterparts. For example, the photo above shows the image a camera would capture depending on its sensor size.

Mike Collins’ setup compares a 5D Mark II, which has a full-frame sensor, and a 7D, which has a smaller APS-C sized sensor. Using a variety of lenses, the video illustrates exactly how the crop ...

Since an APS-C sensor is about 1.3 times smaller than a full frame sensor, for example, your field of view is cropped in by a factor of 1.3 and any lens you attach is going to take on that crop.

Because these smaller APS-C lenses won’t cover the full sensor area of a full frame camera. You can use them, but only with the camera set to an APS-C crop mode, so that you lose a good part of ...

Full-frame has a crop factor of 1x, while a crop-sensor camera has a narrower angle of view, meaning a higher crop factor. A narrower angle of view can be super helpful to get you close-ups of ...

For most of the past twenty years the common digital camera sensor sizes were 1/2.3-inch, one-inch, APS-C and full-frame, with a further alternative in Four Thirds favoured only by Olympus and ...

However, if you compare a full-frame sensor of a higher resolution (like in the D810 tests later on in the video) and downscale it, then you actually see about the same or slightly better ...

will be taking a week long trip to salt lake city and trying to avoid taking too much gear (Canon 60D vs 6D). I had initially packed the 60D w/ a 16-35 and 70-200 thinking the 16-35 would serve as ...

So the crop factor is the ratio of the image sensor size to 35mm film. This means that your Nikon D850 , Canon EOS R , Sony A7 III , or other full-frame camera has a crop factor of 1X.

Do you really need an expensive full-frame camera? I spent a year with a cheap, secondhand crop sensor alternative to find out ...
