Theproblem with APS-C's "real ecosystem" is that most of the good lenses have been developed for full frame. I shoot both DX and m43 and I really wish that a lens like the Nikon 200-500 had been APSC/Super 35mm – OFF. In this mode, the camera will always capture full-size image sensor pictures. So if you put a cropped-sensor lens on the camera, you might see the edges of the lens at the edges of the photo, Lens A (full-frame 50mm prime lens) would shoot at a 50mm focal length. Lens B (cropped-sensor 50mm prime lens) A50mm Sony APS-C lens is the equivalent of 75mm on a full-frame. This is especially noticeable when, for many APS-C cameras, shooting at 4K can add an Youhave an APS-C camera with a crop factor of 1.53x (a super 35 crop factor), and you want to buy a lens that will give the same image as a 50mm f/4 full-frame lens. Here's what you do: Select the Sony APS-C crop factor with a value of 1.53x from the list of sensor sizes. Now the calculator is an APS-C focal length calculator. Go to the Sonys first 16–55 mm (24–82.5 mm full-frame equiv.) APS-C zoom with a constant F2.8 aperture is remarkably compact while offering performance befitting the G Lens series. A new optical design delivers excellent corner-to-corner resolution, and beautiful bokeh is available when needed. It is compact, lightweight and ideal for a wide range SonyAPS-C A-Mount Lenses. These lenses are specifically designed for crop factor APS-C sensor cameras like the A77 II, A77, A65, Etc They will not work on the full frame A-Mount cameras in full frame mode, but will default to crop factor mode when used. – Prime Lenses (fixed focal length) Thenew 30mm f/1.4 is just a little wider than your standard prime lens, providing an equivalent focal length of 45mm in 35mm format, and has the fastest aperture of all Sony E-mount lenses for the APS-C system. This makes it a versatile choice for a range of genres including street, travel, documentary, environmental portraits, and even Interms of depth of field (DoF), you'd need a 55mm f/1.2 to get the same DoF from the same subject distance as you would get with an 85mm f/1.8 lens on a FF camera. The 55mm f/1.8 on an APS-C camera could only match the DoF of an 85mm lens set at f/2.8 on a FF camera. TheAPS-C size area in the viewfinder is represented by a guide frame (shown below) to help you choose your composition. IMPORTANT: This camera uses a full-size image sensor. Therefore, DT Lenses are still not recommended for use with this camera even when using the APS-C size capture function. Updated January 8, 2024. Sony uses 2 different sensor sizes in their cameras. Full-frame (36x24mm) APS-C (23.5×15.6mm) The APS-C sensor is 1.5x smaller, whereas full-frame is the same size as film back in the day. Both sensors have their own pros and cons, and in this article I’ll explain the benefits of each system. ECFF.
