Other than the physical size differences, there are some other differences to take note of between sensor sizes, which we’ll be exploring in this piece. Outside of these two, you also have medium format (larger than full-frame), and Four Thirds (smaller than APS-C, also known as Micro Four Thirds or MFT). In 2023, probably the two most common sensor sizes you’ll see on the market are full-frame, which is the same sensor size as 35mm film, and the smaller, APS-C format, similar in size to APS-C film. For example, the Canon EOS R7 (APS-C) has 32.5 megapixels, while the Fujifilm X-H2 and X-T5 (also APS-C) have 40 megapixels, so all three have technically higher resolution than many full frame cameras (typically 24-26MP at this price level). But when you factor in resolution, or megapixels, the boundaries become blurred. All other things being equal, a full frame camera will give better quality than an APS-C model. Just as bigger negative sizes give better quality with film cameras, the same is true of sensor sizes. The image sensor is the fundamental element of any camera, but with several different sensor sizes available, it can be a bit confusing to know the differences – and to decide which is best for you. In terms of APS-C vs full-frame Amy Davies lets us know the key differences, pros and cons. Do you need to buy a full-frame camera in 2023, or is APS-C good enough? A lot has happened recently, particularly some new, higher-resolution APS-C cameras that appear to close the gap to full-frame cameras and even overhaul some base models.
