[QUOTE="Lurch, post: 137598, member: 13754"] Morning all, I have a question that I'm struggling to find an answer for from good ol' Mr Google. (I went looking for a Newbie section, so if I missed it - Mod's, feel free to move :) ) So... I realise aperture has two main affects on photography. The amount of light let in (as part of the Aperture/ISO/Shutter triangle), and also DoF. Now, the DoF bit of FF vs APSC I get, but... what effect does a FF sensor have of the amount of light let in? EG: If we were to take two similar cameras (Say, D800 and a D7100). Both at ISO 200 and 1/250sec shutter. And set them both at (for arguments sake) f3.5 Ignoring DoF for a sec; would there be any difference in exposure? I'm trying to understand if the larger surface area of the senor allows for more light to be 'soaked up' or anything similar? Sorry for the long and probably dumb question; but its something I havent been able to get my head around - so figured I'd just ask :) - Lurch [/QUOTE]
