[QUOTE="Bill16, post: 173082, member: 15356"] Sigh........ To me, being a newbie, this has been a complicated and confusing issue, with neither sensor variation coming out on top. To me it seem that each have their own ways the excel. So it all comes back to preferences in my newbie opinion. The larger sensor being true field of view vs the smaller sensor being altered field of view, based on the 35mm standard. So for a newbie, I think it would be much easier to work with if the benefits of each sensor size was pointed out. That way a newbie would have a better idea of which direction he/she should go based on his/her preferences. Then the newbie could learn to work with what they have without wondering if their choice was the right one or not, since we would be just mostly guessing and going by other people's recommendations(their preferences). I've seen several times where the member regretted buying their first or even first few camera choices, and was only happy once the switched types. :( So my question is, can anyone point out the where each type excels? No need to point out the area that is lacking, since the other type likely excels in it. These other explanations of the differences only serve to confuse unless you are much more knowledgeable about this subject, or have a fairly good understanding of the math involved. Can this idea be done? Even if it lacks some minor details it would still be better than just confusion. Lol :) Thank you for your patience and help! :D [/QUOTE]
