![]() ![]() The other reason is higher image quality, which means you get sharper, better quality colour images. It’s for this reason alone that many people choose to upgrade! The first is that the full frame sensor provides a broader dynamic range, and therefore handles low light better, and gives you less noise (even when using high ISO’s) than a crop sensor. Totally generalising here, but the full frame is usually considered “better”, for a few reasons. So, which is better - full frame or crop frame? Let let me show you an example! So the first image below is how your image would look on a full frame camera with a 50mm lens. That means your 50mm focal length lens will “act” more like an 80mm would on a full frame!Īnd if you had a 28mm, that would act more like a 45mm lens. ![]() ![]() So for a 50mm lens, you’d take 50 and multiply it by 1.6 for Canon (or 1.5 if you had Nikon) which gives you 80mm. What you can do is take the focal length of the lens you’re using (or want to use!) and then multiply it by that crop factor we just spoke about. This is where that good ol’ crop factor we’ve just been talking about comes in. How do I know how a lens will perform on MY camera? So the actual lens focal length remains the same, it just ACTS differently on a crop frame sensor. What this means in practice is that you need to consider how lenses are going to “perform” on your camera - so for example, a 50mm lens will give one field of view on your full frame camera, but act completely different on your crop frame, perhaps closer to how an 85mm would perform on a full frame. ![]()
