[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 130746, member: 3903"] Full frame is FX, cropped sensor is DX. The difference is essentially a size difference. I know that the FX sensor is 24x36mm which is the same size as the original 35mm film was. DX is 1.5x smaller. So, if you use the same focal length lens, you will see just a smaller portion of the image on the DX where you will see the whole thing in FX. Google could be your friend as there are a lot of sites that explains it maybe better than I. [/QUOTE]
