Analysis
of the crop factor and "telephoto advantage" of an APS-C camera
Advantages and disadvantages of
cropping images to gain extra reach. This article also gives some examples
of the calculation of focal length
New: Click
here to see an interesting comparison of a 36 megapixel full
frame camera, the Nikon D800, with a 24 megapixel APS-C camera, the Nikon D3200. This page shows that the 24 megapixel
APS-C camera has about 26% greater reach than the 36 megapixel full frame
camera, because its pixel size is about 26% smaller than that of the full
frame camera.
In addition, click
here to
see an interesting analysis of the pixel density advantage (including pixel
size) of a 36 megapixel full frame camera (such as the Nikon D800) when
compared with a 16 megapixel full frame camera (such as the Nikon D4). This
page explains why the 36 megapixel full frame camera has about 50% greater
reach than the 16 megapixel full frame camera. The Nikon D800 and the Nikon
D4 were introduced early in 2012.
Remember that images on this site have been reduced in
size considerably and saved at a low resolution. Therefore, the original
images look a great deal better! To obtain the best appreciation of the
quality of an image, display the image on your screen at a reasonably small
size.

When you click on a thumbnail image that is displayed on this site, you will
obtain a page that has an enlargement of this image. If the description of a
thumbnail image includes an asterisk (*) this denotes there is a sub-menu
of images on this topic on the enlargement page. For example, if you click
on the thumbnail image for the
Camborne Walkway,
you will obtain several more images that were taken while on this beautiful
coastal walk.
The latest picture to be added to the site is of Lake Okareka, captured
while on the beautiful Lake Okareka walkway.

My main camera is the incredible Sony Alpha 900, which is a 24.6 megapixel
full frame camera. My main lens is the great 24mm - 70mm Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar
T*. My telephoto lens is the the Sony 70mm-300 mm G SSM lens. The Sony A900
captures incredible detail and the images are suitable for making very big
enlargements. I also own the very nice APS-C 16.2 megapixel Sony A55 camera.
This camera is light to carry and I sometimes use it when on long walks in
preference to the heavier full frame camera.

images taken with the Sony A900. To give you an appreciation of how these
images will appear when greatly enlarged, the full-sized images are
