The respective sensor sizes look something like this. This simply means I can flick a button and the camera goes into APS-C mode. But what I like about this particular full frame body (the Sony a7rii) is that I can shoot in Super-35 which is hugely convenient at times. That doesn't mean that my full frame camera is redundant, I keep it for those occasions when I need ultra high resolutions for extremely large print applications (a case in point being a billboard earlier in the year and occasional huge enlargements beyond about 40 inches). When using a full frame camera I would need to stop down somewhat in the same conditions and use a larger and heavier lens. If anything, the additional depth of field (and effective ‘reach’) afforded by the crop factor of the u43 sensor can be quite beneficial at times. I'm talking about environmental portraiture, pet photography, landscape and street photography (recreational), and wildlife photography. All have their own distinct uses.Īs a full-time professional out in the real world, ultra-thin depth of field rarely raises its head in the vast majority of day-to-day situations. Over the last year I've introduced a couple of APS-C cameras (Sony a6300 and Canon 200D) and a full frame mirrorless camera (Sony A7rii). For the last few years I've been exclusively using Micro 4/3 cameras in both my professional and personal life.
In fact this is one of the most frequently asked questions which I receive in my mailbox each month. But sometimes a simple real-world comparison is all you want. The Internet is full of useful depth of field charts and tables.
