Crop Sensor and Full Frame Differences. A crop sensor camera, also known as an APS-C camera, has a smaller sensor than a full frame camera. This means that the sensor is only able to capture a portion of the image that a full frame sensor can. As a result, the field of view of a lens on a crop sensor camera will be slightly narrower than on a
Image from CaptainKimo. There are crop sensor cameras, like the Lumix GH4 that I mentioned at the top of this post, that have a Micro Four Thirds sized sensor, which is significantly smaller than full frame and will effectively give you a 2x crop. What this means is if you put on a 50mm lens, it will look more like a 100mm lens on your MFT camera.
1"-type sensor. Type 1 (12.7 x 9.5mm) sensor. We will quote sensor area in comparison tables, as it's the difference in imaging area that has the biggest impact on image quality for single-shot photography, and we believe area is the more intuitive way of conveying the magnitude of sensor size difference.
While the full frame cameras have a 24mm x 36mm footprint, crops cut away the edges to leave you various sizes based on the manufacturer. For example: APS-H (Canon) uses 19mm x 28.7mm. APS-C (Canon) uses 14.8mm x 22.2 mm. APS-C (Sony, Nikon, Fuji, etc.) uses 15.7mm x 23.6mm. Micro Four Thirds (Olympus, Panasonic) uses 13mm x 17.3mm. If the sensor covers the full area of the image circle, it is called a “full-frame sensor” and if it covers a smaller portion that throws away or crops part of the image, it is called a “crop sensor”. Full-frame sensors have the same physical size as 35mm film (36mm x 24mm), while crop sensors are smaller and can vary in size depending
The "effective" differences result from (a) the smaller sensor effectively cropping the center of that image (thus effective focal length of 1.6x), and (b) the greater DOF on the crop is primarily the result of using a shorter focal length than you would on the full frame camera to get the same perspective and framing.
Cheap lens on full-frame vs. my best lens on DX. (roll your mouse over) Above are crops from much larger images at 100% shot on my Canon 5D full-frame with a 20-year old Canon EF 70-210mm f/4 zoom lens and shot with my very best lens in this range, my Nikkor 85mm f/2 AI-s, on my DX D200.
