[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 519840, member: 12496"] I think it is wrong too. The light coming out of the same lens is exactly the same image, regardless of sensor size. DX does crop it smaller, so if the same megapixels, the FX pixels are half again larger dimension which could be better signal to noise (kinda depends on which sensors are discussed). And the smaller cropped DX image does have to be enlarged half again more, never a good thing. But if from the same lens, it started as the same image. It may be about the size or number of pixels, or specific sensors, or future degree of enlargement, but it is not about quantity of light. [/QUOTE]
