![Is Full Frame Better Than APS-C? Here's The [Annoying] Truth...](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/tOx3Y52EPNI/mqdefault.jpg)
“Try to think what you are going to buy in the future. Whether you’ll switch or not”.
Couldn’t agree more with you on this. You speak from your experience. Thank you ❣
This was very helpful Toms. I kept seeing the "FE" and "E" titles on web pages but couldn't figure out what the difference was. You just helped me not only understand what these two represent, but saved me from just buying an "E lens" for the APS-C camera I'm going to be buying. Considering that I'd highly likely move to a full-frame camera in the near future to ramp up production value, I won't be making the mistake of buying an "E lens" for the APS-C, but an "FE lens" that can grow with me that I can use between the crop-sensor and full frame cameras. Thank you so much for this video!
Thanks a lot for this video. All the best.
Thanks for checking it out and leaving a comment. Means a lot mate. All the best to you too 🙌
Awesome, i got clear points in this video,, very nice...
If You can do clarification? of How to buy a lens for DSLR and Mirror less.. sometimes people will buy mirror less
lens for DSLR, Vice versa...
Happy new year
So all you have to do is look for the name of the mount. For example Canons DSLRs use EF-S mount for their lenses but their mirrorless cameras only accept EF-M mount. You can't take EF-M (mirrorless) lens and put it on EF-S (DSLR) camera. The only way you could do it I guess is to use adapters. But you will quickly run in few problems. They cost money, they add to the weight and size, AF might not be as good so just don't bother. Buy proper lens for a proper mount.
@@TomsJurjaks Thank you so much..
Thank you! Subscribed.
Thank you so much for subscribing 🙌
Thank you for your explanation. You re very helpful toms!
My pleasure Ares 🙌
Very useful. Thanks bro, and good continuation.
I still never understood this. I have been searching for a good lens for the Sony A7iii, The Tamron 17-28, or 28-70 E mount never says FE on them. Are they made for full-frame cameras? every review mostly shows on the Sony A7 series of cameras, so confused here.
Hey buddy, I get your confusion, but I can assure you that those 2 Tamron lenses are made for Sony Full Frame cameras like A7III (even though it doesnt say "FE"). Another way how you can find this is by looking at the focal length. 28-70mm is the "standard" focal length for the "standard" mid-range zoom lens (look at A7III kit lens, it has almost identical focal range). But for crop sensor cameras like Sony A6400 the kit lens is 16-50mm (because of the crop factor). So rest assured, these two Tamron lenses are perfect for your A7III :)
@@TomsJurjaks well I'll be dammed, there's a lot to look at for a beginning at least, so worried about buying the wrong thing. Thanks a lot that makes sense and does help.
I feel you my friend! @@enginerunsable I had the same feeling. I didn't even know what I don't know so it might feel overwhelming. But you will get through it. If not, ask here! Im always glad to help. Good luck 🙌
Really good video! At first the lenses game is kind of dificult, but when You find some info it gets clear. So this video is a great resource to get to the bottom of them lenses.
Exactly man! It was very difficult at the beginning and even recently I was mixing things up. But as time goes by you almost learn each lens by heart for which system is it 😁
Thank you for this video. Just the information that I needed in nice short format.
I'm shooting on a Nikon D7000 (crop) body as it was cheap at the time but I want to explore video a bit more.
The older generations of DSLR's video capabilities are rather limited, hence me wanting to look into buying a 2nd hand Sony A7.
Amazing explanation..u saved my money 🤑😊
Very informative video ❤love from India 🇮🇳
Glad you liked it!
Thank you, very useful video. I’m a new user to a full frame Sony and because I used to Canon lens and had no clue about Sony e mount lens. 👍🏻
You are very welcome Jorden. I hope it makes it little bit more clear and good luck with the Sony :)
@@TomsJurjaks It helped a great deal. I had selected lots of APS-C lens on a wish list to buy for my full frame camera. So you saved me spending money on lens which would have been no good for it. Once again “a big Thank you” 😁
Thnks for this information I found it very helpful.
I visited Copenhagen many years ago..."Hi hi"....beautiful city

Just the video that I needed !!! Thank you ❤️
Im so happy the video was useful Yaakoubi 🙌
Super video, merci ! :)
Il est vrai qu'on vite perdu dans ces appellations Surtout pour les sites qui affiche E pour du FE sans apporter cette précision.
Tnx man! I'm about to buy sony a6000 and I choose it over the canon M50 because I'm planning to switch to full frame in the future
Thats great to hear Alan! Then you can start going on with buying Full Frame lenses already!
Awesome video! Thanks!
Thanks Colin 💪

Thank you my friend!
It's just too useful
Glad to hear that 💪

So if I buy a E lens is the focal length correct for crop sensor or do I still need to x 1.5?
You still need to multiply it by 1.53x. You can also do it here: www.omnicalculator.com/other/crop-factor just pick the right sensor (Sony)
Very useful video, thank you so much! I was having hard time and guessing if it would work.
Glad this video brought in some clarity Boyko 💪
Thanks, I am looking for a lense.. I am a begginer and you saved my wallet lol
Haha glad you got it figured out Alejandro. At least for me it was very confusing in the beginning to figure out what fits where 😁
Hi I have the a6000 sony. I'm planning to upgrade the camera body a7iii only in 2 months time. I have the fe50mm full frame. What all-round lens would you buy ?
So you definitely need to look for a full frame lens as it will fit both on your A7III and a6000. I would go for a standard zoom lens. Either Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 or Sigma 28-70 f2.8
Thanks for the replying and video 😉
So is sigma 85mm 1.4 dg dn E mount is for a crop sensor?
Any full frame lens will fit on crop sensor camera. So basically if you have a crop sensor camera, you cant go wrong because both crop and full frame lenses will fit.
if i put a full frame lens on a aps-c camera, does it screw up the autofocus?
There is no difference Dax.
@@TomsJurjaks awesome, thanks
Hi! I have a A7ii full frame mirrorless camera and I’m always confused with the “Sony A fit” lens. Is that compatible with my A7ii? Or is that for the Crop Sensor Cameras like the A6400?
But everything else in the video really helped me out. Because I was so confused on what Lens I should buy! Lol
Sony's A-Mount is very old mount and will not fit any A6XXX or A7X cameras unless you have adapter. You must buy Sony E-Mount lenses :)
@@TomsJurjaks Would a FE mount lenses work as well? Since my A7ii is a full frame camera? :D
I just bought a wrong lens....Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III RXD (Sony E-Mount) for my A7III...
Damnit...
No wait, its the correct lens. That Tamron is a Full Frame lens and A7III is a full frame camera. The thing is that some third party manufacturers don't use "E" vs "FE" - they just refer to their lenses as "E-Mount" which is technically correct, but you need to read in their website description if its for Full Frame E-mount cameras or for APSC E-Mount cameras. Yours is for Full Frame, so its all good.
@@TomsJurjaks Thank you!!!! Loved the video!
CAN YOU USE A SONY E MOUNT ON OTHER CAMERAS
Only if you find an adapter but I wouldn't recommend that.
In reality Emounts will work on Full Frame bodies, with vignetting or a crop, whichever you chose, but they work (and fit the mount no problem).
Exactly. But a lot of people don’t know this. Especially when purchasing lenses. Probably everything is a big blur on what “fits” where. Cheers
@TomsJurjaks When I purchased my A7iii all I had readily available was a Zeiss Touit apsc lens from a NEX7, and of course I started seeing that huge dark vignetting, until I switched to super35 crop via camera menu. But I thought those "thru a barrel/tunnel" photos looked really cool and I hang on to them dearly. Hey, great channel and comtent. Thanks
I own a Sony A5000, and the Sony 28-70mm F2.8 does NOT fit.
Perhaps because there is no such lens as Sony 28-70mm f2.8? Did you mean Sony 24-70mm f2.8 G Master or Sigma 28-70mm f2.8 or Sony 28-70mm f3.5-5.6?
Place give me sir place......
Totally wrong, there is only E mount ,FE is a nick name for E mount. I have E mount lenses for my Sony A7Rii and they are full frame E mount lenses.
