>>3980315>Charts tell you that you loose dynamic range by shooting crop mode, well, you don't... And it's a fact observable to anyone that has eyes.Pic related. Which patch of gray is noisier to you? The left side, or the right side?
>I'm not talking about printing. I'm simply talking about crop mode on ff cameras. You cannot talk about DR without talking about view size because view size impacts the visibility of noise.
>Many of them have one to be used on crop lenses. Charts tell you that you loose dynamic range by shooting crop mode, well, you don'tYou absolutely, observably do for a given view size. Let's say I take a photo on FF and view it (monitor or print) at 16x24. Now I take a mft crop and view it at 8x10. I can push shadows just as hard on the crop as the FF. But the MOMENT I view it at 16x20 those pushed shadows fall apart. If I pull that push back a bit to make the shadows acceptable in the cropped image, I have less DR than in the FF image.
We do not impose view size restrictions on our photographs based on sensor or crop size. We enlarge our photographs to common sizes. When you enlarge a mft image and a FF image to the same view size, the FF image has less noise/more DR.
>You get the same exposure, at the same noise levels, at the same dynamic range. You are right about noise/DR if you view the cropped image at a cropped size. The moment you enlarge to the same view size this is no longer true.
>Simply going for crop mode won't effect sensor performance in any way. It's exactly the same if you go for crop sensor.You have never, not even once, tried this. Cropping reduces relative sharpness, increases noise, reduces DR, and from the same sensor (or same pixel pitch) reduces resolution.
