(NADS) - What is a full-frame sensor camera and what is the difference between full-frame and APS-C sensors?
Currently, cameras are divided into two most popular lines: full frame and crop, each type of camera has its own advantages and disadvantages. So, what is the difference between these two lines, and which line will be more suitable for each person's needs? Let's dive into the comparison to find the answer.
Full-frame camera:
It is a camera with a Full-frame image sensor with a sensor area of 36x24mm, the same size as a traditional 35mm film camera (36x24mm), about 1.5 times larger than cameras using Crop sensors (APS-C).
Crop Camera
A camera with an APS-C (crop) image sensor, which has a sensor size 1.5 to 1.6 times smaller than a traditional 35mm film camera, usually (23.6×15.6mm). APS is a sensor manufacturing technology, short for Advanced Photo System.
The difference between fullframe and crop cameras
Angle of View: With the same lens, a Crop camera will have a narrower angle of view than a Full-frame camera. This means you will have to stand further away to capture the same frame.
Depth of field: Crop cameras usually have more depth of field, meaning that with the same aperture, Fullframe cameras blur more background and have a thinner depth of field.
Image quality: Full-frame sensors typically provide better image quality, especially in low-light conditions, thanks to their larger pixel size.
In poor conditions such as poor lighting, when increasing ISO, Full-frame cameras produce more detailed, sharper images with less noise than Crop cameras.
Who uses Crop and Full-frame cameras?
Choosing between a Crop and Full-frame camera depends largely on each person’s needs and goals. Here are some suggestions for who is suitable for each type of camera:
Crop Camera
- Beginners: Crop cameras are often more affordable, compact in size and quite easy to use, suitable for those new to photography.
- People who like compact, small things: With its compact size, Crop cameras are very suitable for those who need a professional photography device but are easy to carry and put in any bag or backpack. Light and compact are the strongest advantages of the crop camera line.
- People with limited budgets: Crop cameras are often cheaper than Full-frame cameras, helping users save money.
Full-frame camera
- Professional photographers: Full-frame cameras provide high-quality images, good light sensitivity and wide dynamic range, meeting the strict requirements of professional photographers. Allowing to capture landscape photos with wider angles, more details and more realistic colors.
- People who want to use high quality products: For those who are not too concerned about their budget, want to experience the latest technology, specialized lenses, Full-frame cameras will be a good choice.
In short, each type has its own advantages, disadvantages and features, suitable for different audiences.
Full-frame cameras are for those with higher, more professional needs. If you take portraits, the camera will easily give you smoother background blur frames. If you take landscapes, the camera will give you a wider dynamic range. However, Full-frame cameras are usually much more expensive than Crop cameras.
Crop cameras are suitable for those who are new to photography. At the same time, the cost of a Crop camera is not too expensive. It is a camera that users can always carry with them because of its small size and easy to carry.
