![]() To achieve the same field of view on a cropped sensor use a wider lens. With regard to field of view differences, the article makes a good point of the wider field of view being useful in capturing moving objects. So a good modern camera is more than capable. I won't even start on potential print sizes at 300dpi. So micro 4/3 16mp sensor is overkill by either 8x or 2x, a 24mp sensor is 12x or 3x overkill. Provided the image is captured well on the sensor everything currently gets cropped to view it.Ī HD screen 1920 x 1080 pixels is around 2mp, a 4k screen is around 8mp. It's not so much anything to do with sensor size 'crop or full frame', as to do with usable pixel count (viewable pixels). The Canon EOS 5D has a surface area of 864 square millimeters, resulting in a pixel density of 34,800 pixels per square millimeter. ![]() The pixel density is 59,500 pixels per square millimeter. For the Canon EOS 7D Mark II, the surface area is 336 square millimeters. I am going to compare a 20-megapixel Canon EOS 7D Mark II with a 30-megapixel Canon EOS 5D Mark IV as an example. Newer cameras, both crop and full frame, can have even a higher resolution. Full frame sensors have somewhere between 24 million and 30 million pixels. Most crop sensors have resolutions that are somewhere between 18 million and 24 million pixels. Is a Crop From a Full Frame Sensor Better Concerning Resolution or Not? You still end up with enough pixels to make large prints, if necessary. If you want to crop 1.5x to imitate the image from a smaller sensor, you lose between 30% and 40% percent of the resolution. With the high pixel counts of modern sensors, that doesn’t have to be a problem whatsoever. When cropping a full frame image to have a larger magnification, we throw away resolution. You could shoot with a full frame and crop afterwards.
