So we’ll end up using different focal lengths on different cameras to achieve the same field of view because we want a certain frame size, or to see a certain distance, or we get kind of a wider angle or something like that. The next step up to full-frame-sensor cameras costs extra, adds bulk, and is only needed if you regularly shoot in dim light higher than ISO 6400 (such as for indoor action), or specialize in night photography, or often print images larger than 2 or 3 feet in size (to be viewed closer than their longest dimension by critically sharp eyes). But the reason you have a race car is because you have more cylinders, and you can drive it in another gear other than first gear. If you have an APS-C sensor, that’s going to be a crop factor of 1.5. For greatest editing flexibility, rather than shooting JPEG format, serious photographers should record and edit images in raw format, which is supported in advanced cameras (but often not in small-sensor devices). The mirrorless cameras are small, light, and super modern. Many fisheye lenses claim 180 degrees – when really they have a horizontal angle of about 140 degrees. Other camera manufacturers have their own crop sensor dimensions. So in order to compensate for the smaller shutters on the larger sensor cameras, we’re going to step up the ISO. Any of the options mentioned above will get you some amazing images. That said, it ticks the right boxes for certain photographers, and anyone who’s willing to buy used can get quite a good deal on the Df. PL provides various digital photography news, reviews, articles, tips, tutorials and guides to photographers of all levels, By Spencer Cox 3 CommentsLast Updated On August 25, 2019. Do you ever hold the camera diagonally when taking photos? At this moment the panasonic HC-X1 with 20x zoom looks interesting price/quality. Since 2016, 1″-Type sensors optimize the bulk of serious travel cameras, as in the following which capture excellent dynamic range (bright to dark) with exceptionally fast autofocus: Although I prefer the above portable all-in-one solutions for travel convenience, the following top APS-C-sensor camera lets you interchange lenses and capture less noise in dim light at ISO 3200+: Traditionalists wanting an optical viewfinder, more lens choices, and night photography may pick a bulkier DSLR-style camera with APS-C sensor: If you are considering one of the excellent cameras with Micro Four Thirds sensor, consider that the Sony A6xxx camera series is nearly as compact yet collects more light onto a larger APS-C sensor. If you’re interested in longer effective focal lengths and you’re on a budget, then a crop sensor camera is the way to go. It only shoots 5 FPS rather than 7 FPS natively, the sensor is 36 rather than 45 megapixels, and the autofocus system is 51 rather than 153 focusing points. Karl replied: I really liked the versatility of the Sony. Learn more in. Zeiss 16-70mm is about 5% sharper than my RX10iii from 16-50mm (24-75mm equivalent) when in direct sunlight, and for closest focus in dim light around 45mm equivalent, but otherwise not. Super-telephoto lenses that reach 600mm or even 800mm are extremely expensive. As sensor sensitivity improved in later years around 2013-2016, megapixel count again became relevant for making larger, sharper prints in pocket cameras (especially for cameras using new Sony 1-inch Type 20mp sensors). I typically first shoot a test shot on automatic Aperture-preferred priority, inspect the histogram, check any blinking highlight warnings, then compensate subsequent shots using Manual Exposure (or temporary Exposure Lock grabbed from the scene). So there are a lot of advantages, especially in video, for Micro Four Thirds cameras. Tom Dempsey replies Aug 30, 2015: Dear Su. – f/7.6 on full frame divided by 1.5 is f/5 on A6000 to get the same hole size, for same depth of field. I’d like something a little longer zoom (460ish) and a general upgrade to help with low light and freeze action stills (birds), and macros… for the money I have available now. This is calculated as follows: How can I calculate this? I never used a large sensor and am not sure of the benefits in this comparison. But without actual testing, we cannot really predict which lens will beat another: For example, compare the following two similar Sony E-mount zoom lenses: 1) the 2015 full-frame “Sony E-mount FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS” lens (27.5 oz, 36-360mm equivalent) versus Using a top lens in terms of large diameter, effective stabilization (IS, VR, OIS, etc or tripod), zoom range, bright/fast aperture and good glass. So optimum sharpness for most lenses is usually an aperture of around one or two stops down from brightest aperture. It has a 20x optical zoom, which starts at 28.8mm angle of view at the wide end, as expressed in terms of “35mm full-frame format equivalent”. Thnk you so much for the reply. Being smaller than full frame but larger than APS-C sensors, the crop factor of these is accordingly between the two at 1.3x. Noise levels stay low, and you’re able to capture beautiful photos in dark conditions. Wow, great response! The Z6 also has great video specifications, including oversampled 4K video with 4:2:2 10-bit HDMI output. Go with what works best for your workflow–that may be Nikon systems. It may seem expensive for what you get – on paper, twice the price of the D850 for lower resolution and just three more FPS – but pros who photograph the Olympics don’t care. RX10 III roughly matches the D7 Mark II through ISO 800, but adds more noise at 1600+. It is decent but i want to try to push the detail up a tad more. Does it mean that 215 on a full frame means the same as 1200 mm on my sony HX 300 ? This is a photo of a low dynamic range scene: The shot is mostly midtone pinks, and there’s not much difference between the lightest and the darkest parts of the scene. The little panasonic lumix dmc-fh24 is a noisy mess of speckled garbage…useless for what I do.) However, it is also a significantly larger, heavier camera. When using “equivalent apertures” you’ll find that RX10 makes a good lightweight landscape camera, except at night, where A6000’s sensor (3.2 times bigger in area) should be less noisy, especially when compared above base ISO. In terms of image quality balanced with incredible travel flexibility, RX10 III beats both Panasonic FZ2500 and also Canon 7D with 28-105. Legacy sizing labels such as 1/2.5″ Type harken back to antiquated 1950s-1980s Vidicon video camera tubes! Because its close-focus distance is not exceptional (as close as 1.97″ or 5 cm at wide angle; but 11.81″ or 30 cm focus at telephoto), its 20-megapixel macro images of tiny subjects will need to be cropped so that they look sufficiently magnified. — a wide angle lens of 4.3mm multiplied by 5.64 crop factor = ~ 24mm on a full frame camera Both Sony RX100 ver III and Ricoh GR flash have an impressively fast synch speed of 1/2000 sec. Therefore, full frame cameras tend to have more megapixels than their competing crop-sensor counterparts. The A99’s 42MP BSI CMOS sensor is spectacularly sharp using prime lenses: compare A99 to other cameras at dpreview. But money spent upgrading to digital lenses would be better applied to an RX10iv for travel. – f/7.6 on full frame divided by 2.7 is f/2.8 on RX10 to get the same hole size, for same depth of field. I own both a full frame size sensor camera, EOS D5 and an APS C-size EOS D50. High ISO performance is also essentially the same, with only the slightest improvement on the D4s. I’m almost sold on the RX10 IV. RX10 III keeps up surprisingly well considering its smaller 1-inch sensor size versus APS-C on the other cameras. The Sony might be a slightly shallower depth of field. A disadvantage of focusing with the lens poking just a few centimeters from the subject is that you may cast a darkening shadow on it (or disturb insect subjects). But in general, don’t choose cameras by megapixel count alone. For overall flexibility and excellent sharpness across the frame, for my professional publishing needs, I prefer the 37-ounce RX10M4 over all other camera systems. A photo with a deep depth of field is sharp throughout, from foreground to background. I think a RX10iv is the way to go… WAY better than an iPhone camera & still portable. For weight-conscious backpacking, I instead use an 11-ounce pocketable Sony RX100M6, which has the same 1-inch sensor. JP Morgan and Kenneth Merrill over at … A 410mm is huge for a APSC lens. Now, part of this is because crop sensor cameras cater to hobbyists, while full frame sensors cater to professionals. I expect that RX10’s catch-up in quality under dim light is due to superior light sensitivity of BSI sensor plus larger lens diameter gathering more light, 72mm versus 55mm. It is also a 1″ sensor vs. the APS-C on the Nikon. John bresnen. So enjoy that. The FZ1000 II leaps in quality over your Panasonic DMC-ZS10 pocketable camera. Hi Nasim, I had and still have the D700, beautiful ,,, then I took a D4 that I like very much and recently also a D500 to have a lighter body for trekking and animal photography.
