[QUOTE="ISOhappy, post: 642849, member: 44145"] I suppose my definition of reach is—a larger final image. Imagine that sign on the transformer were a bird. If the distance I shot it from is the closest I can get, the bird is going to be bigger in the DX image. Also, because the pixel density is higher, there's going to be a lot more detail. Look at how much clearer the D500 crop is. Here are the two crops again. This time, I cropped the D750 image to give (roughly) the same framing as the D500 crop. The final D750 crop is only 0.34 MP, while the D500 crop is 0.77 MP. This is what I call more reach. Unfortunately, I don't think you can duplicate that with any full frame camera. You'd have to have a FF camera that matched the px density of the D500. Now, you could enlarge the D750 crop so it's the same MP as the D500 crop, but that's just going to make it look even blurrier. This is why I shoot a D500 when I need "reach." [ATTACH=CONFIG]270188._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]270189._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
