Merits of APS sensor
Another advantage of the smaller sensor is more DOF, I've found when using the Q you can shoot a F2.8 and get plenty of DOF for landscapes and you get fast enough shutter speed to avoid have using a tripod. Obviously this is a disadvantage for portrait photographers. I still impressed with the...

I would say that's a disadvantage :) One of the only reasons I would want a FF camera is to make better use of my 50/1.2 @ 1.2 Smeggypants, you're going to have to start reading posts properly before you comment. I said it is an advantage for landscapes and obviously a disadvantage for portra...

I love that a 300 mm is efectively a 450mm so effectivly longer length windlife photography has become more affordable. However I'm having to result to lightroom/photoshop much more to improve portraits. You win some you loose some Apparent longer length is more accurate. This misconception ...

This misconception keeps raising its head on a regular basis. That's because for many photographers it is not a misconception at all, we're simply talking in terms of practicalities rather than technicalities. It's cumbersome and unnecessary to talk about apparent magnification and stumble over ours...

The small sensor's larger depth of field is an advantage for some things (eg Landscapes) But a disadavntage for others (eg portraits.) This makes no sense. You can always stop down a lens to get more DOF. But you cannot do the opposite. Besides, stopping down with a smaller sensor runs into the...

2 (practicalities) the aspects of a situation that involve the actual doing or experience of something rather than theories or ideas: Dictionaries are like chocolate boxes - you can almost always find at least one selection you like.

We digress but both explanations dismiss theories and ideas. Facts will remain facts. Best regards

[quote:3496ace15f="sussexwolf"] Sorry, but there are no photographic advantages to a smaller sensor. If you think there are, remember you can simply crop an image made on a large sensor to get the same net effect. There is an advantage if you want DoF at a small aperture in low light, which can't...

I can't say I've had problems with the DoF on the crop sensor, I just stick a longer lens on and move further back:wink:, ALL formats will have both pros and cons, at the end of the day you work with what you have or what suits your style, so do we really need to continually argue about F/F v APSC.

so do we really need to continually argue about F/F v APSC Not need as such, no, but some seem to enjoy this sort of debate. Anyone who wants a FF sensor can actually go out and buy one today if they wish. I won't be doing so, not because Pentax don't offer a product, but because I don't want a b...

so do we really need to continually argue about F/F v APSC I don't think anyone is really arguing. It is more like a discussion. After all this is what forums are about. On can learn a lot by reading the comments of other participants. Also each topic is separate. therefore when participating i...

No axes to grind Mhuni, so I'm unsure what you refer to. You say but you meant? Now you are talking equivalent focal lengths? So due to a cropped sensor you have to reduce focal length to regain similar angle of view. So comparing two different focal length lenses for DOF is a non event. Apples a...

K10D, why are you comparing both lenses set to 15mm? The Q at 15mm is a 35mm-equiv field of view of an 82.5mm lens. APS-C set at 15mm is equiv to 22.5mm Full frame is a very wide 15mm You are comparing the DOF of a short telephoto lens to that of an ultra-wide angle lens. Unsurprisingly,...
