Sensor Sizes Explained

In this tutorial, I’ll be explaining the difference between full frame, crop sensor (sometimes called APS-C sensors), and micro 4:3 sensors. I’ll be explaining all about crop factors and the effects different sensor sizes have on the focal lengths of lenses. I’ll be doing this with a lovely drawing, then I’ll be putting all of this into practice with 3 cameras to visually show you the effect they have on your images.
