The next material is a more detailed explanation about Crop Factor. After the previous article has discussed about Full Frame Sensor vs Crop Factor. The previous article explained that the sensor is made smaller due to pressure prices. Full frame sensor is relatively expensive then the camera manufacturer to innovate by creating a crop sensor cameras with a cheaper price.
Understanding Crop Factor
Crop camera is a camera which has a sensor size smaller than the size of the movie. Known crop camera because when a lens mounted on a full frame camera show the area of the photo include (as an example) mountains and fields, then when the same lens you put on a crop camera is the area of the picture will be cropped (crop) that only covers only the mountain only, so the narrowed area of the photo. Sensor size is smaller cut full view of the resulting lens.
- The green frame is the size of a full frame sensor.
- The blue frame is the size 1.5x crop factor (used by Nikon, Sony, Pentax, Fujifilm and Samsung).
- The red frame is the size 1.6x crop factor (used by Canon).
- The yellow frame is the size 2x crop factor/Micro Four Third (used by Olympus and Panasonic).
Camera manufacturers also produce lenses with two types according to the size of the camera sensor. From the nikon make a lens for full frame FX code and code DX for crop factor. While from the Canon make a lens with EF code for full frame and EF-S code for the crop factor.
Full frame lens can be used in all the good camera full frame sensor or the sensor crop factor. Instead lens for crop factor can only be used for the camera sensor crop factor.
