How do I know if my lenses are full-frame?

If the lens’ title has “EF” (no S) in it, then you can use that lens on either full frame or crop frame sensor cameras. For Nikon, if you see “DX” in the title, the lens is for crop frame DSLRs only. If it has “FX” in the title, the lens was designed for full frame (but can also be used on crop frames).

What happens if I use an APS-C lens on full-frame?

If you put an APS-C lens on a full-frame body, it either won’t work, or will only take a photo using a very small portion of the sensor. This is because of the size of the imaging circle around the part of the lens that goes into the body.

What is the difference between crop sensor and full frame?

A full-frame sensor is a digital sensor that replicates the size of classic 35mm film cameras (36 x 24mm). A crop sensor is smaller, which means it crops the edges of your photo to produce a tighter field of view. There’s no standard size or crop factor for a crop sensor—it varies among brands.

Are full-frame lenses bigger?

Size and weight: The overall size and weight of full-frame cameras is greater than their crop sensor counterparts. Full-frame lenses are also larger and heavier. This may not matter to many photographers, but if you frequently carry gear for long distances, it could be a factor to consider.

Can you use E-mount lens on full-frame?

Yes, you can use an FE lens on an E-Mount camera that has an APS-C sensor. However, when you use a non APS-C or non full-frame lens on an E-Mount camera with a full-frame sensor, the image quality suffers because you’re no longer using the entire sensor.

What is Sony full-frame mount called?

What’s the difference between crop sensor and full frame?

“Crop” and “full-frame” refer to the size of the camera sensor. A full-frame sensor is a digital sensor that replicates the size of classic 35mm film cameras (36 x 24mm). A crop sensor is smaller, which means it crops the edges of your photo to produce a tighter field of view.
