I have A6600 and the A7IV, I enjoy shooting landscape and bird photography. Despite the advantage of low light for full frame, I'm constantly taking my A6600 for birding trips and landscape photography. Being a lighter setup enables me to be less "scary" looking holding a big camera/lens. I can say its true that the full frame is not 2 or 3 times better, maybe just 20 to 30 % better, usually in iso performance. As such I'm now considering very seriously to sell all my full frame and go back to apsc (A6600 + A6700)

After watching my A7R2 rapidly fall behind more recent generations I am now pursuing APSC lenses to round out my kit. Cropped mode on my camera gives 18MP, which is adequate if we are honest, so I appreciate your emphasis on APSC Sony options. Good video, I like the results from the 56mm a lot.

The thing for me which I noticed is the low light performance since I do take more photos at night upgrading from my A6000 to the Sony A7III was a good idea plus doing time-lapse is much easier on the A7III. Mind you the upgrade from the a6000 to the a7III was a massive leap all in all so it made more sense for me.

@surja17
@surja17 2 года назад
I think there are a few points to highlight here: APSC f1.4 is equivalent to full-frame f2.1 in terms of bokeh - therefore the background separation is significantly different in my opinion. Also, most of the shots you took were around ISO 100. Full frame widens the gap from crop sensor at higher ISO values ..... the one scenarios where you had higher ISO values - the full-frame at ISO8000 was significantly better than the APS-C at ISO6400. These may be the deciding factors for a lot of people and therefore should be highlighted properly.

@alansach8437 Год назад
All true. On the other hand, the additional "reach" of a high resolution APS-C camera (like the Canon R7) might be just what you need for capturing shy little songbirds. Not only does the 1.6 "crop factor" get you "closer " with the same lens, but the high megapixel density (higher than the R5) will allow you to crop additionally in post. Also, APS-C is a fine economical choice for documenting family outings, vacations etc. There is no universal "right" choice.
@isblijkbaarnodig
@isblijkbaarnodig 2 месяца назад
If I’m correct this is untrue. Crop factor has no effect on aperture. So a 56mm f1.4 lens on APSC has similar depth of field and bokeh effect as a 85mm f1.4 lens on full frame. Feel free to educate me because I don’t know the physics that would prove either way.

Nice video and comparison. APS-C's have gotten so good that the differences are minimal until pushed to the extremes where F.F. has the edge. If you are a pro, go F.F. without question. However, for casual weekend Dad shooters like me, APS-C is an amazing package. My A6400 has served me well and I have no need to go F.F. Both those 85mm and 56mm are outstanding lenses.
@satchrocks34
@satchrocks34 2 года назад
"APS-C's have gotten so good that the differences are minimal until pushed to the extremes where F.F. has the edge." Absolutely! Especially in terms of super high dynamic range situations and low light/high iso situations. I don't know how the A6400 and the newer versions of sony aps-c function in the real world, but in situations where my lighting is sufficient and controlled, its incredibly difficult to tell the difference between my a6000 and a7iii. Especially if not using a higher end prime on the a7iii, there are times where the crop sensor camera performs better. However, in situations where i need to significantly bring down highlights, bring up shadows, or use a higher ISO, the a7iii blows my a6000 outta the water. Noise is much more well controlled and looks better (less color noise) and have used shots at like 12,000 ISO where there is no way i could have with my a6000. With things like cost and weight factored in, I almost feel like I coulda just kept using my crop sensor camera with quality lighting, instead of spending the money on a new FF camera and much more expensive glass. Having a joystick is a lifesaver for me though

Thank you so much. Your comparisons are really good (side by side, zooming really close in). I like that you do comparisons between lenses/ bodies where others would say "you cant compare Apples with peaches". But i liked all FF Shots better, mostly because of the bokeh, and then the so much better low light quality. But to be honest, i am even less than a hobbiest and the 1k for a6400 and sel35f1.8 hurt me (not reqlly finanziellly, but because of reasoning) - so spending 3x the money would not let me sleep, regardless of the better quality.

Hi Arthur Good to see you now have 170k+ subscribers. I subscribed around your 10-15k phase several years ago when I first started using a Sony APSC body. That early sub and my first Sony APSC (bought after viewing your channel) started me in a totally different photographic journey that eventually saw my switching from mostly Nikon kit (after 28 years) and going 'all in' with Sony. Not seen many of your vids lately, but stopped by for this, Agree APSC is pretty good and possibly optimum for most.
@chicken_person
@chicken_person 2 года назад
Yeah, as was shown in the video and what a lot of people are saying in the comments, low light is definitely the huge difference here. As somebody whose favorite genre is astrophotography, low light performance is among the most important aspects of a camera. I started with the a6000 and Rokinon 12mm f/2.0, but once I had the budget to move to an a7s and Rokinon 18mm f/2.8 the difference was incredible, and that difference increased even more once I got the Sony 20mm f/1.8. Only big downside of the a7s is that autofocus is garbage, but I *still* like to use the a7s more for action shots (sports) regardless, because it just functions so much better in low light situations. I use my a6000 for basketball sometimes, because it's closer-up than when I shoot soccer and so I can use the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8, but for most of the rest it's worth dealing with the crappy AF. It just means I have to be more careful about timing, since continuous AF + burst shooting is unbelievably terrible.

As someone who has the Sony A6600, and have had the A6100 for years, thanks for making me feel better about sticking with the APSC line :)! I prefer the 30 mm Sigma because I like not having to be so far away from the subject when shooting, and then just use the zoom 18-108mm or the 70-350mm (both sonys) if I want other views. It's always fun and SO satisfying when reviewers challenge the status quo as well as "sacred cows" that people hold dear as to which is better. One thing that the APSC line kills the full frame, besides price, is size, portability, weight, and general usability, especially for travelers. Smaller less conspicuous cameras get used much more than the larger bulky cameras---it just feels weird to attend MOST social gatherings or events local to your home and carry big cameras, almost no one does!

It's a trick. He's changing the white balances to try to throw people off, and obviously people gravitate to the warmer white balances as better. But all he's doing is crippling one image to make the other look more preferable. At 1:1 with the same white balance, the full frame wins every time. So he's trying to equivocate white balance to distract from image quality, as if the white balance changing means that the image quality must not be a big enough difference. But since we see color and contrast in colors, bad color rendering can naturally make a superior quality image look bad in comparison. But once you account for if the full frame wasn't crippled by a thrown off white balance, it would always edge out.
@emilolguin3087
@emilolguin3087 2 года назад
The colors between the two are the result of a couple items not being addressed. The 85mm lens being longer will require the light to travel a bit further, therefore, there's about a 1/3 f/stop difference. You notice it the most when the shutter speeds and iso are the same, the 85mm will appear more saturated in color. On some of the shots where the colors are more equal, the shutter data on the 85mm lens reads about 1/3 slower or the iso will be higher by 30% to compensate for the light loss. Both lenses produce beautiful images and would certainly be an asset in anyone's camera kit.

I also noticed that the dynamic range is much better with ff (i.e. while shooting directly into the sun).

Photography is my hobby and I bought a6600 after following Arthur's suggestion. I have kit lens, sigma 16mm and sigma 56mm. The photos those I've taken so far.... are impressive. Even you push the limits in low light,the results are great. For video, it needs gimbal; but for photo it is good setup for good price. I've never used full frame; but if it is hobby, I think it is better to spend the price difference to diffetent lenses like tele photo lens.

With post production, I think either would work with wedding photography. Not often are raw images sold as final product. Just my opinion

yeah modern apsC can do professional work too. full frame is mere hype and overkill at this point. for the size and price it demands, its not that much better than apsC; most of the time they look close enough some light editing can pick up the slack. and unless you're cropping a lot, or have some other niche ass use case, apsC is the smart choice

I love, love the sony a6000 and I bought it 3 years ago based on your videos. What I would love from you, as I choose my next camera, is to compare photos taken only at night. I'm going Tokyo and would love to take bokeh pictures in lower light conditions which is why I'm thinking of getting the A7C but not sure if the full frame is worth it. Please do a video on the same camera comparison but with night photography.

Great analysis, I have seen the same myself when I was using Fuji often.... I also see the same when using a 50MP full frame and compared to a medium format fuji..... Seeing the difference is where the pixel peepers see the most results.

The cost savings continue to add up as you introduce additional lenses, too. The Sony 70-350mm, Tamron 17-70mm, Tamron 11-20mm, Sony 10-18mm, and the Sigma Trio (16, 30, & 56mm)…all far cheaper than full frame equivalent lenses. So, as you build out your collection of lenses, the cost savings will continue to grow. If you have the money, or you’re making enough income off your work, then go full frame or even medium format (if you’re really making the big bucks). Otherwise, APSC has come a long way.
@TechnoBabble
@TechnoBabble 2 года назад
Most of the equivalent lenses are the same price or slightly more expensive. The Tamron 11-20 f/2.8 isn't much less than a 16-35 f/4, which has the benefit of OIS. The Sigma 56mm f/1.4 is currently $430USD and the Sony 85mm f/1.8 is $550 but lets in more total light on a full frame sensor, the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 is $290 and the Sony 50mm f/1.8 is $250, the Sigma 16mm is the notable exception as the cheapest first party option for Sony is the 24mm f/1.8 Zeiss T* at double the price.

I actually have the 70-350 on the way as we speak. Should show up on Tuesday so I can get some crisp mountain goat shots. And one thing that I like about the APSC line is they will only improve, unless Sony ditches it altogether, which seems highly unlikely. After all, imo, they have to beat out the Fujifilm XT4 if they're a serious camera brand.

Thank you so much Arthur for showcasing so many sample pictures side by side! In 2024 it's really hard to decide if with 2k someone should buy APSC and a cornucopia of lenses or buy one of the cheaper FF 😅 for family / travel with small primes, but thankfully I also do only 99.9% family photos that we only print 3x2" or share to grandparents so I'm glad you help us all understand our use cases better 😂

@roy.mclean
@roy.mclean 2 года назад
If both lenses are at f4, you will indeed see more bokeh on the full frame lens. Just as the focal length is subject to the crop factor, so is the aperture. F4 on a crop sensor is equivalent to F6 on full frame. It would have been interesting to see the results of the 80mm on the crop sensor and the 50mm on the full frame.

I appreciate these videos so much. Hardly any channels really go with in depth comparisons between FF and crop cameras. They always overtly or subtly trying to push FF. I am willing to bet that 95% or more the people would never notice the difference. Save the money and use it for travel or other things.
@RedStar89
@RedStar89 2 года назад
I can tell the difference in the depth of field in these photos. As we know bigger sensor makes us move nearer the subject where as aps c makes us stand further if we are using the same focal lengh on each cameras. That said composition and good lightning whether its aps c or full frame can make photo look gorgeous or really ugly

Hey Arthur, its nice that you point out that full frame isn't everything. A lot comes down to lenses and a lot of apsc lenses can get very simular results. Keep in mind that judging sharpness when shooting at slower shutterspeeds isn't ideal, neither the 56mm or the A6100 has stabalisation, also setting your whitebalance helps with consitency of the colors. Anyway, i think that the Sigma 56mm is a bargain, but the A6100 is pretty expensive in europe. Hopefully it helps people making the right choice, because full frame isn't the only good option.
@romekk3975
@romekk3975 2 года назад
For portrait photography, you always want to be able to capture more detail so a full-frame camera is a natural choice. The APS-C setup you are using is a very strong contender but the difference is the price is well justified. I would take an APS-C camera for landscape shots as I stop down significantly for such photos anyways.

I just bought my Sony a7iii a few months ago and I can definitely say it is a better camera than Sony a6000 I had before. Also my new lenses are a lot better! I love the bokeh, colours are better by my opinion too and low light performance as well! But if you have the same amount of megapixels on full- frame and APSC you don't see a big difference in detail. And this video is a proof of it!

I have the sigma 56mm for my Canon M3 and it's the cleanest corner to corner for that APS-C body also. But my Canon 5DS with an 85mm Canon lens also wins by a small margin. There is another interesting approach. I can use my speed booster with the full frame 85mm lens and get an f stop below one on the M3. Even though the resolution is less than half, it's more than adequate if I don't have to crop.

I totally agree with you. For casual users, the APS-C setup is great, but if you want that extra wow factor, get the full-frame. It's like NASCAR racing, if your car was slightly better than it is, you may have won the race.
