[QUOTE="Disorderly, post: 130747, member: 10297"] Full frame is the same as FX and refers to a 35mm equivalent sensor. A crop sensor AKA a DX sensor is smaller, about the size of APS film or about 1/3 smaller than FX. Given the smaller sensor, a lens has an angle of view of a lens 50% longer, so a 50mm lens behaves more like 75mm. [/QUOTE]
