Full Frame vs. Crop Sensor - Does Your Crop Sensor Camera let in LESS Light?

    Years ago I bought a canon ae1 program. I bought it when i first joined the military to document my overseas assignment and shot on it consistently for 3 years. I kept it for years and when I returned stateside I put away in a box. I never developed my own film just sent it out to be processed. Fast forward to 2013 i took an intro to photography class i pulled my camera out of retirement and it worked great. In this class we were taught to process film and i found it to be a pain in the butt. I had a newfound respect for people who processed film for a living. I sold my ae1 program and never shot film since.

You need Spartanburg Photo to give you discount code you can pass along to your viewers... I'd order more film and supplies from them if they were about 15% lower. I have ordered a few pieces of used equipment and the service and gear have been great.

    Todd, thank you for your interesting video! I’m considering this lens as well, but only for the 40MP X-H2. Was wondering if you think it is sharp enough to handle the higher resolution sensor of the X-H2. Enjoy your awesome Fujifilm X System!

    • @Todd_Kuhns
      @Todd_Kuhns 12 дней назад

      I have owned 5 Fuji lenses now. The 16-80 was as sharp as any of them. When I got it I considered it to be a lens just to get the system going and I would quickly replace it. I was surprised at how great of a lens it is and had zero complaints about it. All that to say, I don't really know if the 40 mp sensor will be too much for it or not. If it is I would think most of the fuji lenses would then struggle. I am not a lens engineer so I can't answer this with any authority but if I upgraded to the xh2 or xt5 I don't think I would hesitate to put the 16-80 on it. Thanks for your question!

    I remember learning a wedding photographer’s role is to tell the story by capturing the place, the people and the emotions of the day. When a photographer interjects his or her own ego by excusing poor technical skills as a style then they have failed. I think I’ve expressed my opinion about how digital has ruined the craft of photography and nothing proves that point than portraiture and wedding photography.

    After watching a few reviews on the AD100 Pro, the size, portability, and even the power put out by these completely sold me. I purchased three, and I absolutely love them! I haven't gotten the modifier kit yet but that's on my list. I have an SMDV Flip 28G Speedbox , that is compact, portable and it sets up in seconds. It also comes with a carry case that measures 25" x 8". The AD100 Pro attaches magnetically with no need for a bulky Bowens mount.

It got recommended to me by ChatGPT haha, otherwise I would never have found it. Maybe you’ll answer me on a question I’m having: What do you think about the difference between V and VI concerning filming since I would also like to do some filming stuff of my trips for example. Is there a huge difference there concerning the quality and the possibility to edit in post? (on a basic hobby level obviuosly, but still with good quality) I’m a little bit concerned that the V may have a quite less good video quality but since I don’t know I'm asking. p.s. a little tipp: Some slight background music would upgrade the video by a lot :) Thanks man!

      Thank you so much for watching and for the comment. I'm thrilled you found me. As for the V and VI when it comes to video. They both do really well. I have to admit, however, that I don't use them for video often. One thing I found is that if the camera is in auto focus mode the lens will make a little noise and my mic picked that up. Easy fix with a remote mic but just so you know. I do think the VI has an advantage because of the IBIS. Not an upgrade I thought was needed for stills but for video I think it is a plus for a little steadier footage. All the best to you!

    You are absolutely right, the myth that larger sensors collect more light needs to be debunked. However, I believe that your experiment is one of the several situations where the full frame camera does collect more light: On the common part of the image (the part of the image covered by the crop sensor), the two are absolutely identical, which means that on the common part they collect the same amount of light. Since the full frame has a wider angle of view, it certainly collects more light. But anyway, the amount of light that the sensor collects is the amount of light delivered by the lens to the sensor. Perhaps, the more meaningful question is: how to produce similar images with different size sensors?

      Ultimately, my point is that the exposure is not changed based on the size of the sensor. Which was the misinformation I was hearing.

    I Think the Angry Photographer covered this 7 or 8 years ago and commented on it in his video "Don't see comments anymore about "larger sensors = more light" & other nonsense"

    Might wanna drop the images taken in a Dropbox and post on here so we can see. Also (with the risk of sounding dumb) I think when people say “let’s in more light” is when dealing with low light shots, which I personally would have been more interested in. That said, glad you chose the R7 cause it’s a really good camera that everyone ignores cause apsc

    Nothing grinds my gears more than when people say we need to multiply the F-Stop number by the crop factor. No one is doing Depth of Field calculations for portraits. All you are doing is confusing beginners on what crop sensor really is.

      I agree. Thanks for watching and for the comment.

    I believe some information is still wrong. There will really be no difference in the exposure result if measured per pixel on full frame and crop cameras with the same pixel density. However, as the area of ​​the full frame sensor is larger, it captures more light and thus manages to form a larger image. In your reasoning, if there was a sensor measuring just 1 millimeter it would also capture the same amount of light, the photo would have the same exposure if you did your test. We cannot confuse light capture per pixel and total light capture, the total light captured by the full frame sensor is greater because it has a larger area, but this does not change the exposure result because in the cropped sensor it is as if we were only capturing information of a small area of ​​the full frame sensor. it's the same amount of light per square inch, but the full frame sensor has more square inches.

      You still make my point. Exposure doesn’t change based on sensor size.

      But in the video you confuse the concepts. At first you ask: Bigger sensor lets in more light? The correct answer is yes, a larger sensor receives more light than a smaller sensor if you use a lens compatible with the sensor size. But this light is spread over a larger area. Think of a glass with a small diameter and another with a large diameter exposed equally to rain. If exposed for the same time, you will have the same height of water in both glasses, but the larger glass will have more water. The exposure per square inch is the same on any sensor (under equal aperture and shutter speed conditions) but a larger sensor captures more light because it has a larger area

    Really the term "crop" should have been a clue against that thinking. If you take an image with a full frame camera, and crop it, does it become brighter? All a smaller sensor does is see less of the image. Though I wonder if most people who do believe that are having a "blindingly obvious" reaction, where just knowing "bigger area -> more light" (i.e. apertures) make brighter images? Not considering the larger image sensor is merely receiving that extra light... as larger image area.

    I think this rumour comes from a misunderstanding of something true. If you use the same lens of the same focal length and aperture on a larger sensor, there is more light on the sensor, but obviously, that light is shared out over a greater area, so it appears no brighter. This is why speed boosters exist: they take that same amount of light and compress it into a smaller area. So in fact this is an advantage which crop sensors can take better advantage of than full frame or larger. It's one of those times where, just because you "know" doesn't necessarily mean you understand.
