Digital Photography tips, Full Frame Sensor ( advantages and disadvantages)

[jh3835]

i use to shoot with a $150 point and shoot camera, now i shoot with a $600 slr crop sensor camera. let me tell you the difference in image quality is way better in my slr. in low light at 3200 or 6400 the images are a lot cleaner and usable. there is noise but i can clean it up with lightroom by using the luminance slider. 

[ithree6mafia]

what would be better a nikon d300s or nikon d700. and you cant choose based on ISO capability.

[ny1fanta]

lol i love this guy, btw do you suggest d700?

[siliconsurf]

@ny1fanta fuck nikon!

[deathdemon128]

Ooooo. i'm thinking of getting the T2i but which one did u end up choosing?

[SuperTrevino23]

can i get pro images with a 50D? People say I take great shots but I feel they could be better. I'm a amatuer and would like to turn pro but I look at some other photographers stuff and can't seem to make my images look like theres. any advice?

[FontanaKnowledge]

@SuperTrevino23 I would have to say to study light and the science of light. It is not that hard, mostly conceptual I suppose. Your camera should suffice for most work until you can afford another but it is more about knowing your stuff.

Look up the inverse square law and reflected light vs re-emitted light. I will be making videos about this but in the meantime you can research them on your own.

I hope this helps.

Peace

i think that the 5d mark ii is easier to handle than 1d or d3. so its not THAT heavy and same sensor.

[ShallowBeThyGames]

With an APSC sensor, how large is the limit of blowing up those images?

[siliconsurf]

@ShallowBeThyGames 1.6 ratio

[lbnupe]

great stuff...

[toyangel1]

Good Info! in my experience with the 5dmk2 it is useless in motorsports photography (action shots) due to the FPS compare to my 1dmk2n with it's lighning fast AF. And it's like having an extender built in. Now as far as studio work i would shoot with my 5d.

[cocolia6828]

awesome Bro......very easy to follow you...so Question: you said at the end of this video that theres a Full sensor camera at $900 ??? i mean....when i read about the full sensor thing(time ago) i understood why is better a bigger sensor......im asking cause i can afford 900 or 1500.....but no more than that jejje......give me Hope Brodaaa.......

[FontanaKnowledge]

@cocolia6828 No its not the full sensor camera that is $900. Its the 18 Megapixel video enabled T2i I was referring to. Full frame cameras start at about $2,500 =o(

[cocolia6828]

@FontanaKnowledge ohh ok ok...well.....that sucks...jejee but thanks for the feedback...

[DomMusti]

no seriously, you could get the 10-21mm for your 7D or whatever cropped camera or still use your 5D for wide angle shots! but is there a great difference in picture quality between the 5D and the 5D mark2 or would you just be buying it because of the movie mode? If yes then you should be going for the 7D and you get the video capabilities plus a pretty professional camera in general and not a amateur's toy (which is a lot of fun too of course ;)!peace

man you rocQQQQ!!!! I am too tiny to comment but you are god..someday I will be you! ;)

[tissa71]

OK. I didn't understand anything, but may be one day i will :)

[FontanaKnowledge]

@tissa71 Did you happen to check out the last video on sensors. If not check it out. This is continuation of that =o)

[IPAUILO]

Really good video bro. Very detailed and loads of useful information ^^. God bless.

[Technicolormaster]

Love the advice in this one, Thanks as always!

[PhotoCrimeX]

What is the name of the song playing at the end?

[TMWarMoth]

Look at the 7D, i have one and LOVE it.

yes its not a full frame its aps-c but its better than the t2i's

its a great camera.

[mohdjmk]

re loosing the wide angle range, i noticed that the wider lens for full frame sensor is around 16mm, and the 10-12mm is only for the small sensor, which make no different between the two sizes re their wide range. am I right??

[FontanaKnowledge]

Yes, They are equal when you do the conversion. But the lay-person may look at a 16-35mm f/2.8 and buy it thinking they are getting a wider range. But on their APSC sensor it is only a 24-52mm.

That is what this video is trying to teach, so as to save the heartache. =o) Thanks for the comment, you are right.

Peace

I wouldn't even have the 5DMk.II in the same league as the t2i.... t2i is entry level/consumer... the Mk.II is pro

[FontanaKnowledge]

That is the point in the comparison. Mk II is full frame and better for large print work and discriminating cliental. The T2i is for documenting your family and maybe doing smaller job if you need to and that is your only camera.

I am considering the T2i strickly for its video capabilities. It does full HD just like the MK II does but its sensor is still smaller hence less quality. But I don't know what the difference is as of now. I haven't gotten my hands on one yet =o)

[xadacka]

Personally I'd go for the 5D if you can afford it, The t2i has a max of 30fps and I'm not sure if that's proper 29.97 or if it's exactly like the Mk.II used to be (which is bad).

The Mk.II had an update today too to enable proper 24p shooting!

[FontanaKnowledge]

The T2i actually shoots video these resolutions and frame rates • 1920 x 1080 Full HD video at frame rates of 24 (23.976), 25 or 30 (29.97) frames per second. Other

•HD at 1280 x 720 (50/60 (59.94) fps) or SD/VGA at 640 x 480 (50/60 (59.94) fps).

•The EOS Rebel T2i also has a built-in microphone for simple mono recording and stereo sound can be recorded through a self-powered external microphone.]

• I took that right off of canons site in case you couldn't tell =o)

[xadacka]

Òh right okay. Hopefully you'll make a good decision ;)

[oobxlr8r]

i know with the full frame sensors your depth of field seems smaller, even though it isn't. that might be something to consider depending on your wants and needs in the video features. also to consider, your ability to hold the camera steady. as an owner of a 5dii the very few videos i've taken were all handheld and not that great. for moments i would have loved to have on video forever they weren't that great due to my poor ability to steady the camera for somewhat extended periods of time.

[gatchieboymd]

man...... you have the best advice in photography...... cool work...... god bless

[jokerman80]

Helpfull!! You rock.. keep up the great work!

[FontanaKnowledge]

Cool thanks Jokerman. I wasn't sure if folks would be into this one. It is a little more technical than I normally like to do but I felt it was necessary. =o)
