In addition, you get the same angle-of-view coverage from a shorter lens. For example, a 50mm focal length on my Fujifilm APS-C system gives me the same angle of view as a 75mm focal length on full frame. And last but quite possibly not least, APS-C sensor systems tend to cost less than full frame equivalents.
A 18-55mm lens used on a camera with an APS-C sensor has an effective focal range of 27-82mm, although the exact length depends on the camera used. Image Credit: Nikon/TechRadar. Here’s an example.
This is because of the ‘crop factor’ on a smaller sensor, which effectively multiplies the focal length of a lens and makes it easier to fill the frame with faraway subjects. As an example, an APS-C camera with a crop factor of 1.6x would give a 400mm an effective focal length of 640mm – that's a lot of extra reach and very handy when you
OR you can attach an EF-S lens (same mount but opening tailored for the smaller sensor) which holds the focal length true for the APS-C sensor. When inputing the focal length above for a EF Full frame lens attached to the APS-C sensor, I have do the 1.62x calculation first, correct? i.e. an EF 30mm would be effectively a 48.6mm on the APS-C sensor.
The only change comes when you mount a APS-C lens on a full frame body or vice versa. It seems like people on the internet are confused and and keep saying APS-C lenses have a 1.5 crop ratio vs Full Frame, so for instance a 50mm APS-C lens has less a field of view compared to a 50mm Full frame lens.. but they are the same.
The focal length and field of view is the same for EF and EF-S lenses on the same camera. however, when reading a lens review that was made on a FF camera, note that the overall experience of that lens on a crop camera may be different (for example, I love the 70-200 on full frame, but rarely use it on my 7D as it gets "quite long" on that camera).
The “Focal length vs. angle of view” comparison illustrates this relationship for both 35 mm full frame and APS-C format cameras. * Focal length in ( ): equivalent focal length when mounted on interchangeable-lens digital cameras with 35 mm full-frame sensors
When I first started with my present DSLR APS-C system that came with a mediocre zoom, I bought 2 full frame lenses, 35 and 50 mm, planning for a future purchase of a full frame camera. Those lenses are still favorites, despite the fact that I have wide angle, telephoto and zoom lenses for the system.
Select the Sony APS-C crop factor with a value of 1.53x from the list of sensor sizes. Now the calculator is an APS-C focal length calculator. Go to the second section, "35mm full-frame equivalents", and input a focal length of 50 mm and an f-stop of 4.
