Dumb question, trying to understand crops: I keep seeing how crop factor of 2 on a micro four thirds sensor effectively doubles the focal length of its lens. How honest is this effect?
Does this mean a 300mm lens on a MFT is the same as a 600mm on a full frame?
I'm wondering what this implies. Does this just mean the MFT photo is like if you cropped the edges off of a 600mm full frame photo by 2 and then sized it back up, or is there something with the pixel density that makes a MFT more effective at longer focal lengths?
I just want to photographs birds for gods sake
