This illustration compares digital camera sensor sizes.
Micro 4 3 sensor vs full frame.
A full frame camera contains a sensor size equivalent to a 35mm film format whereas a crop sensor camera has a sensor size smaller than a full frame sensor or a 35mm film format.
However owing to a.
First introduced around 2008 this sensor is slightly smaller and compact in nature.
For new digital cameras a bigger sensor area captures better quality but requires larger diameter bulkier lenses.
Mft has an aspect ratio of 4 3 compared to the standard 3 2.
They ve compared medium format full frame aps c and micro four thirds in a side by.
Corners of the image that you d see on a full frame sensor are out of the coverage on a smaller sensor.
The canon has a full frame sensor whereas the olympus has a micro 4 3 sensor and 10 million pixels less.
Micro 4 3 vs aps c vs full frame.
Watch how we use both cameras to take documentary shots for an exhibition then go to the print lab to see if a professional printer could tell which camera has.
Then there s the depth of field benefits of micro 4 3rds.
The most popular crop factors include.
Micro four thirds 4 3 is a relatively new format and term.
E m1 x t1 a7s 8 side by side tests.
This alone negates any iso advantages the full frame sensor had.
And secondly if the micro four thirds olympus can produce large prints equal to that of a full frame sensor at half the price is there really any need to spend more than 2 000 on a body.
There are standard crop sensor sizes in use today.
Used by the micro four thirds mft system.
This was a blast to do and shows the strengths and weaknesses of micro 4 3 aps c and full frame cameras specifically the e m1 x t1 and a7s.
Full frame 35mm which is actually 36mm wide aps c micro four thirds 1 inch 1 1 7 and 1 2 5 type.
