What type of camera do you shoot with? Leave a comment below! ☺️
Been going on a D3400 for 5 years! Did a few "professional" events with it as well
I have two Canon cameras, Canon 80D, and Canon 6D Mark ii
I also have lenses for Canon Sigma 24mm 1.4 and Canon 50mm 1.8 primes
Full frame. I used APS-C first, but I think my photos using a larger sensor are way better than before.
Just a few weeks ago i bought a Canon Eos R10. Before i was shooting on a Canon 600D 😅😊🎉
When sensor density is the same, FF cameras have 125% larger pixels, not 50%. (1.5 high x 1.5 wide = 2.25 the size, which is 125% larger.)
Just bought the R10, coming tomorrow I'm excited!
It's a great camera, enjoy!
Got very useful information, thanks a lot 🙏🏻
This video is very helpful thank you!
your videos are always helpful
Wow the image quality of this video is incredible.
Really love your cold island preset
Thanks for the info, I just discovered your channel, I'm glad I did!
Thanks for dropping by :)
Very insightful ❤🤗
That is another thing about the cropped dslr. You would think they are easier to hold because they are smaller but often that makes them harder to hold and more difficult to operate. Another thing is their menus often suck.
Just bought the XT-30II and i love it!
Hey Anthony, great video! What's your advice on APS-C lenses vs Full Frame lenses on a full frame camera? I'm considering the Sigma 18-50mm vs Sigma 28-70mm for my Sony A7C, taking price into account (full frame is nearly double). I'm a beginner TH-camr looking for great quality video. Thanks!
Please make more videos like these, enormous amounts of information and value 🫂❤️
Can you please make a video about the best inexpensive ef and ef-s mount canon lenses.
I couldn't decide which way to go, so built a beautiful lens collection around my R with its lovely 30 MP sensor, and this last year, for the joy of new bells & whistle and hiking, got an R7 with the two so-so RF-S lenses (18-150mm, 10-18mm). When I'm birding, the "adult" lenses are the ones in the pack, but I'm not heading up the side of a mountain in that scenario (I live in the US Pacific Northwest. Nearly every hike begins with heading up the side of a mountain.). Thanks for the great video!
Ohh nice! I got an R too. Which lenses did you like the most on it? :p
Currently im just using the 28mm
@@slampest I love my R! Currently, I have the RF 35mm f/1.8, Tamron 45mm f/1.8, Ef 16-35mm (With adapter, of course. Used it just yesterday.), RF 24-70mm f/2.8, RF 70-200mm f/2.8, and the Tamron 150-600mm. The Tamron is the weakest in the line-up, so maybe time to look at RF options. With everything needing firmware updates nowadays, I'm thinking I should just stick with the "party line." We'll see!
Fujifilm xt5 hands down the best crop camera u can get with the best lens lineup ever .
Thats literally just misleading
I beg to differ... their own camera with the same exact sensor in it, the X-H2, is better than the X-T5... but then the same company stuffs a stacked sensor in the X-H2s?! IMHO, the X-H2s is hands down the best crop camera you can get...
so what about aps c canon r7
is it good for professional sports photography or should i go for a full frame
Good info for a beginner like me 😇
If you want to show the different of the full frame and the APS-C,maybe you can just shoot a photo with both kinds of camera and compare them. Using the same settings,lenses,and location. maybe it's can make people understand more easier ?
I started shooting photo for 1 year, and your video is very helpful for beginner! 😂
Only "PRO's" would notice the difference ;)
I own a canon m50 mark 2 with Sigma 18-35 f1.8. it would be great if you shoot your space (where you create your videos) with any canon APSC camera with nifty fifty. Just want to see the exact comparison between the looks of both full frame and APSC. Just a quick short 😅 thanks and you are doing great 👍👍
Hi tks for great video.and can u pls recommend to me good camera not so heavy I will be use for travelling this camera recording my kids shooting too and ibis as well and can I recommend as well good sharp lenses I wud like spend around 2000€ pls let me know thank mill 😊
Do you apply a crop factor to aperture in addition to focal length when comparing lens sizes?
The answer is... It depends. If you're shooting from the same position, no... The depth of field is the same. If you instead move positions to keep the framing of your subject the same then yes, the relative depth of field changes, meaning you could in theory apply the crop factor to the aperture setting.
Um … the biggest issue with swapping lenses with APSCs and FullFrames is the lens mount.
Cannon apsc lenses are not compatible with full frame cameras. However, apsc sigma and Tamron lenses are.
The only issue is the lens will give a peep hole affect and you need to crop the image in post.
When you crop images, you lose pixels and your 20mp camera is only 8mp.
A 45+ mp full frame can be cropped down to a more accessible 12 or so mps you have the built in mode on newer cameras.
If your genera requires heavy cropping on a full frame camera then an apsc without the cropping may give you a better result.
And if you buy third party lenses you need to make sure you understand the supplier’s labeling because you may buy an apsc lens if you’re just looking for an EF mount for your full frame.
*I love my APS-C Camera because you are correct it is More Affordable and More Choices in Lens are Larger.*
Do you have any video about Hyperfocal distance and what scenarios it would be useful to use it in?
I made some shorts on it a few years ago. I'm looking at more concepts to make into useful videos like this, so stay tuned! :)
Larger pixel doesn't collect more light, but a larger lens does. However, in the end, there is a practical correlation between sensor size and light capturing capability, as I explained in the end of this video th-cam.com/video/0yBOoGgRA78/w-d-xo.html.
My crop sensor is what, 1 or 1.2 stops worse than full frame? That benefit in low light etc isn't really worth the extra weight of the full frame. Not for me, as I walk for miles in towns with the camera in my hand. Or the extra expense if it's stolen.
Having said that, I'd LOVE to try medium format for a while. Just for the crazy crispness.
At technical aspect. My personal thought is Full frame is 1 stop better that APSC. Technically we can say apsc with f1.8 and full frame f2.8 is about the same. But! You can find zoom lens with f2.8 on full frame but you can not find much zoom lens on APSC (only 18-35 f1.8). I would say Full frame if you have money and seeking higher ceilings of equipment. Apsc if you are on budget.
I shoot with a a6400. I'd love to u[grade to full frame but the cost is a bit prohibitive.
hey i there any one using fuji film camera ? I have XT200 can anyone tell me that is there any lens adapter available using i can use canon lenses ?
About using crop sensor lenses on full frame. Yes, you get rid of vignetting. Yes, you get rid of a lot of sharpness and CA problems in the corners. But there's a caveat too. Crop sensors typically have a greater pixel density (which of course you mentioned). This means that even in the centre, the image will be softer than on a full frame. Sure, if you buy a high end lens, this might be unnoticeable. But there's a lot of glass where the sharpness difference is really noticeable, especially if your crop sensor has a huge megapixel count (yes, R7, I'm looking at you).
Are there any videos that go into more detail on how the pixel density causes softness? So it sounds like the r7 with the 100-400 would suffer from this? Does this issue extend across the frame or is it just in the centre?
@@aidanoherlihy1614 it happens across the frame but it's the easiest to spot in the centre, where the lens is the sharpest. As for the videos, I can't remember any specific one but I'd recommend John Frost's channel. Whenever he tests lenses on FF and APS-C, he looks specifically for the signs of softness on APS-C. With some lenses, it's quite noticeable.
I've also heard this argument about more softness in the center. I know for sure I've heard it in an older Tony and Chelsea video? The conversation on IQ can get very nuanced, and almost always requires a case-by-case comparison to compare the resolving power of each specific sensor to its full-frame counterpart. In such a case that's why websites like The Digital Picture exist so you can really pixel peep! :)
@@AnthonyGugliotta Yup. And I think the bottom line should be: do your research before you splurge on any lens ;)
@@DominikMarczuk You mean Christopher Frost.
And yes, NO MATTER THE PIXEL DENSITY, the OPTICAL performance of a lens will always be better on a larger sensor, if all else is equal.
e.g. If you get a $1000 full frame lens and the equivalent $1000 APS-C lens (e.g. 50mm for full frame and 33mm for APS-C), and shoot them with everything optimised... the full frame photo is sharper, so long as there are ENOUGH pixels (12mp is plenty).
You can get all of the lens types on aps-c that you can get on full frame, also the increased depth of field on aps-c is a benefit for most shots in the real world
Well there are types of photography where you might want the shallower dof, product photography for example.
@@taiark4840 You want more DOF in product photography not less
LOL no.
I am very often looking for the thinnest DOF.
I have both and it depends on the situation. A7IV and A6400 both shoot very good quality
I now have the R6 mk ii going from a rebel t7 and i love it.
How would you rate the T7? I also had it. In the future will upgrade to mirrorless but not gonna rush. Now have 250D which isnt much better than T7. But more compact and better focus. Gonna invest to some good lenses when I can.
@@og_sane Well it sure was a good camera...Right now i am 10 and I started shooting wildlife with it when i was 7. I only had two lenses with it.I firstly had the kit lens 18-55 and the 55-250 (both ef-s).I don't like the af from dslr, the ovf and there is no c-raw. Otherwise it's a great beginner dslr which is also found for REALLY cheap.
If your a canon APSC shooter on the RF, we’ll I feel for you and the lack of lenses, actually I feel for all RF canon shooters and lack of lenses. Canon make some good f1.4 ff and APSC primes in 2024 lol
Should I get a r10 or a rp
I currently have a canon t7. I do mostly wildlife and the occasional portraits. I’ve been thinking about upgrading to a new body but I’ve seriously been torn between the canon r8 and the r7. The r7 is a crop sensory will give me the ability to do what I’ve already been doing but better. The r8 is a full frame which would allow me to do better at other genres that I haven’t tried and could benefit from the dynamic range. They’re both the same price so I’m torn!
I actually had the t7 previously but the autofocus started becoming buggy and I decided to upgrade to the R8, and I absolutely love it. If they're the same price I would definitely go for the R8.
R8 is awesome, basically R6mk2, but it uses the tiny batteries and doesn’t have IBIS. Something to consider.
Honestly, with how expensive rf lenses, or wildlife lenses in general are, I would get something cheaper like the r10 or even r50 and put the rest of the money towards a really nice lens. No point in having a cool camera if you’re sticking a meh lens on it.
I’d say go for the R7, you have a t7 so your lenses are going to work on the R7, plus you get more reach with the R7 compared to the R8, plus you get batteries that last longer on the R7, plus the R8 overheats if you do videos
@@TuomoTanskanen the lack of IBIS is definitely a consideration!
For me it depends on people to people and for what it is for.
What should i google to understand better the camera-subject-distance relationship to Bokeh (I dont know if i worded this properly...or maybe it only made sense in my mind)
I have eos m6 mark ii which is an apsc but has all the three control on their own dedicate dials 😊
Exactly! Top dial, rear dial, thumb dial! :)
yessss... makes my job so much easier@@AnthonyGugliotta
I loved my M6 II, as I don't think I ever had so much fun with a camera. But I upgraded to the R7 a year ago, mostly for the bird-eye tracking and IBIS. It's a joy.
yes DPAF II is crazy fast!@@wellingtoncrescent2480
4:02 can anyone tell me the name of that location.. pls
I use a fuji X-T2 and it's perfect for me.
The new Fuji lenses are cheaper and sharp from wide open, which is better than some full frame lenses that's the same price or even more expensive.
ie. the Fujifilm XF 33 1.4 which is equivalent to a Full frame 50 f2.1. It is already sharp at 1.4 compared to maybe the canon EF 50 1.2 which is as sharp only when you stop down to f2.8, or the canon rf 50 1.8 which is only as sharp if stopped down to f4.0. You won't really get the same or better quality unless you spend a kidney to get the latest and greatest RF 50 1.2 or the Sony GM equivalent.
Skill matters. Cameras are just tools.
Thats true to some extent, in theory you could give a proffesional a Samsung s4 and they could produce an amazing photo with their extensive skill, but if you're an ameture using your modern smartphone, even a basic DSLR upgrade from 10 years ago is ALREADY producing better photos because of its larger sensor and more glass. Once your skill improves beyond that you're doubling you quality already!
No, now if I gave you an iPhone 4 and me with a Canon R5 with an RF lens, let's compare
Not really... something in the spec of the camera that skill cant covers
There's context between apsc, full frame and medium format in this video. Then there are people comparing those with smartphone from ages ago from my comment. Do you use phone camera for your job? No. Right tool for the right job. The point is people are too caught up with specs, they don't improve their skills.
@@mbismbismb Something such as?
Unless you make a huge size print differences appear. There are professional cameras for ASP-C: Fujifilm H2 & H2S. Please stop wasting money on expensive gear and not be required to hire an assistant to carry your heavy gear! 😊
Like I mentioned I shot on a T1i and 70D for years before finally upgrading to full-frame. It all depends on your needs!
Spot on... I agree 100%. My guess is that it is more profitable for the "Big 3" manufacturers to upsell to full-frame... they concentrate heavily on supporting their full-frame line-ups. Their APS-C line-ups cannot hold a candle to Fujifilm and any of their full-frame cameras near almost any of Fujifilm cameras' price-points cannot compete on feature-set, either. Fujifilm APS-C punches way above their weight.
I just upgraded to the Canon eos R8 from the M50 mkII. I did wonders with the M50 mkII and I’m going to miss it but that R8 just blows it out the water.
Love to hear it! Enjoy the new camera and capture some epic photos!
I really wish people would stop describing crop as magnification. It is the equivalent field of view, not the equivalent magnification
I shoot with a Canon 77D with a Sigma 17-50mm 2.8 & nifty fifty
According to physics, yes FF is better. According to versatility and ability to shoot and crop later, again FF is better. Can you do most things with Crop? Yes. But no argument can fail physics and facts. So in the end, if you have budget get FF, if not get Crops and watch these videos :), period!
Comes down to one's budget & needs. I don't want to lug around heavy and expensive gear when out for a walk with spontaneous pics. Can't afford the very expensive gear anyway.
Great point! Sometimes having a smaller lighter camera is enough to get the photos you want!
@@AnthonyGugliotta Yes definitely. I am a hobby photographer and artist and my photos are potential reference pics for my paintings. My bridge camera can actually zoom in closer for bird pics on a budget than my entry level DSLR & mirrorless with the crop sensor telephoto lens.
Click bait short worked for you man! Get the best tool for what you want to create!
If I get a GFX body I’m getting a 50r or 50s II. The 50 mega pickles from my Canon 5Ds is almost too much. 100 mega pickles would kill my computer.
I can confirm 100MP photos will kill an older computer! 🥲
I don't think they should be called crop sensors, but rather smaller sensors. A "full-frame" camera is technically a "crop" of a medium format camera if you want to use that terminology.
bro, you need to do a video on how you groom those eyebrows!!!
Reveal every secret, please!! I insist.
If you could give previews of the cameras and not the presents it would be a little more helpful.
Resolution IS tied to sensor size under one condition. Resolution ISN'T the number of pixels. Say, you've got a crop sensor and a full frame sensor. Both are 24 Mpix. Is the resolution the same in both? Nope. The number of pixel is. And in this particular example, even though these are two sensors that differ in size, resolution is bigger on the crop sensor. It's because its pixels are smaller, thus on the same square area, say 1 square millimeter, there's a lot more pixels than on 1 square millimeter of the full frame sensor. The smaller the pixels, the greater the resolving power (a.k.a resolution - the ability to resolve detail to a greater extent) is. If you have a 24 Mpix full frame sensor, these 24 millions of pixels is, well..., just a number of pixels this sensor has.
Full frame is better than crop sensor because manufacurer put best feature/technology in it, not because the sensor size. 😅 ..
it's proven that apsc camera is way better than full frame camera under the same price.
... EXACTLY.
R5 and R7. Best of both worlds 💪
Sweet combo!
5:30 buy a sony Full frame are much smaller and apsc like zve10 are tiny ... how prehistoric is that dude
If you like sport, wildlife and bird photography, a crop camera is better because of the extra zoom range.
If you like portraits with shallow depth of field and creamy backgrounds, slightly better low light, sharpness and iso performance, and if this is really inportant to you, go fullframe.
"Smaller Camera APSC" dust off my old beast 7D.
Of course sensor size matters. Anyone who says different doesn't know what he's talking about about. You don't need a long video to explain it.
r50 or r100?
R50 is a great little camera!
when u enlarge the pic then u know why sensor matters
Both a riding mower and a push mower will mow the lawn ;)
Fun analogy :)
Half of the video is jus your promotional...
Crop sensor is good enough. Thats why i shoot with GFX100s. 😂
I got the joke 🥲
“Full frame vs aps-c” but shows us a medium format and full frame thumbnail lol
i will like to have some free Lightroom Presets
Check out my older Lightroom tutorials for that! ☺️
@@AnthonyGugliotta
I think if you are looking at a camera upgrade, you probably shouldn't even consider aps-c. If you are getting your first camera, then maybe, but you can do everything on a full frame anyway, and would want to get there eventually. In the same spirit as you saying its better to get the full frame lens...in case you want to upgrade, but full frames are coming down in price, and as you also pointed out, it is the current standard. ZV-E1 is like $2k, so if you really want to get into photography and buy a brand new system, why not start with full frame? For people who aren't sure if they want to dive into photography, maybe a used camera or an iPhone, before evaluating if they want to get a full frame.
I look at it like this, would i recommend someone go out and get a DSLR? Prob not, that has been surpassed by mirrorless. So would I recommend APS-C? No, that has been surpassed by full frame.
I don't think the video come close to answering the question.
What would you say I missed?
Size still matters, just not as much as your skills, like in many things in life.
I see what you did there
@@AnthonyGugliotta Gotta have the full package
You should compare a Fujifilm XH2s against the R5 not some canon garbage toy
I don't hate on crop sensors. I own both. But there really is no argument to be made as far as the advantages of full-frame.
I can only really see one advantage of crop sensors, that is they tend to be smaller and therefore easier to slot into a pocket or pouch.
I shoot on a Pentax k1ii. I use a lot of old film cameras and enjoy the full-frame benefits. All of the lenses are backwards compatible.
My Sony system can benefit from all the legacy Minolta glass even with AF. My Pentax can benefit from all of the legacy Takumar FF and Pentax FA lenses.
I don't see.many professional photogs using crop sensor.
Do people still doing these dumb videos about full and crop sensor... We already know years ago doesn't matter.. Do you guys run out of ideas for videos already... Gezz
I'm not sure how anyone can be inspired to shoot with a Canon camera. They are so soulless and generic in my honest opinion
How so?
