Super Neat Video
Excellent explanation. One thing I have noticed about a full frame sensor is that you can crop very small areas without losing much quality. I purchased a Sony A7CR with a 61 mp sensor. I take it with me backpacking. I don’t want a lot of weight when I back pack since I often hike in difficult terrain. I take one lens: 40 mm prime. I can crop very small areas of an image and get amazing results.
APS-C is the optimal choice.
