>>4293744>I dont pixel peep or cropWell, here's the secret to sensor size wars, and why they still happen with such passion, when you reach "equivalence" (meaning you need/have the same DOF and won't change the shutter speed, just the ISO)
Micro four thirds looks BETTER when you pixel peep. Full frame looks worse when you pixel peep, and better when you print or view the whole image some other way.
There are a number of reasons like how lenses work and how cropping increases one kind of noise while ISO amplifies several. Mostly, this applies to:
Pixel peeping wide aperture deep focus shots
Pixel peeping small aperture low light shots with a non-negotiable shutter speed between the cameras
However, bigger pixels on bigger sensors have subjectively better (more vibrant) color in low light, and in most shooting conditions (outdoors/studio) "equivalence" ceases to be achievable for the average photo, so a non-pixel peeper will not only enjoy more vibrant snapshits, but because they go outside instead of pixel peeping, they will never experience the micro four thirds quality advantage at all.
