I have well over 30 years of experience in photography so I do know what I am talking about!In this episode - What Is A Full Frame Camera?Here is my answerA full frame camera has a sensor size which is 36mm x 24mm. This is exactly the same size as the film in a 35mm film camera. Typically SLR cameras used 35mm film, so when digital cameras were introduced the camera film was replaced with a sensor of the same dimensions. Full frame cameras used to only be DSLRs, but now you can get full frame mirrorless cameras.Listen for more, or check out the transcript and even the blog post - so many ways to find out more!What’s next?Episode 52 - What Is A Micro Four Thirds Camera Explained In Less Than 10 Minutes Support the showGet your question answeredThis is what my podcast is all about: answering your photography questions.
