Nikon's half-frame DSLR had some advantages in using a full-frame lens, but there were also some aspects that needed to be considered. In terms of focal length, when a full-frame lens was used on a half-frame body, the focal length would change. The Nikon machine had to multiply it by a factor of 1.5. For example, a 50mm lens on a half-frame body would become 75mm, which meant that the angle of view of the lens would be narrower. In some scenes, it might affect the composition, but if a longer shooting distance or close-up effect was needed, this could also be seen as an advantage. In terms of depth of field, a full-frame camera with a large aperture lens could take photos with a shallow depth of field. When a full-frame lens was used for a half-frame DSLR, it could also reflect a better depth of field effect to a certain extent. However, due to the limitations of the half-frame body, it could not fully utilize the potential of the full-frame lens in depth of field. In terms of image quality, the image quality of a full-frame lens was relatively good. When used on a half-frame DSLR, it could improve the image quality. However, due to the small size of the half-frame camera, it could not fully display the image quality of a full-frame lens on a full-frame camera. However, there were some limitations. For example, using a full-frame lens on a half-frame DSLR might not be able to fully utilize the full performance of the full-frame lens. In terms of price, the full-frame lens was usually more expensive. If the budget was limited, it might increase the cost of photography. Therefore, there were advantages to using a full-frame lens for a Nikon half-frame DSLR, but factors such as shooting requirements and cost had to be considered. Read more exciting novels for free
It was feasible to install a full-frame lens on a half-frame body, but there were some problems. From the perspective of angle, due to the small size of the sensor on the half-frame body, the actual shooting angle would be narrower, about 1.5 times or 1.6 times, which had a significant impact on wide-angle shooting. For example, the 50mm full-frame lens on the APS-C camera was equivalent to the 75mm or 80mm lens, which would weaken the wide-angle effect, which was not conducive to large-scale scenery and architectural shooting. In terms of depth of field effect, although the focal length of the lens was longer due to the equivalent focal length, it would not obtain an additional shallow depth of field effect. It might be difficult to achieve soft background blurring in portrait photography. For high sensitivity performance, this mainly depended on the camera's sensor rather than the lens, so a full-frame lens would not improve the high Iso performance of a half-frame camera. The full-frame lens was designed for a full-frame body. When used in a half-frame camera, the edge of the lens would not be used, resulting in the potential of the lens not being fully utilized, and the performance of the lens would be reduced. In terms of image quality, it mainly affected the image quality at the edge of the lens (the center image quality was usually not affected, especially after the aperture was reduced. This effect was not significant on high-quality lenses), and the number of final image resolution would be reduced after APS-C mode was turned on. Full-frame lenses were usually larger, heavier, and more expensive than half-frame lenses. Mounted on a half-frame body would offset the advantages of a half-frame camera being light and portable, and it would also put pressure on people with limited budget. In addition, the autofocus performance of the full-frame lens was worse on the half-frame body. Different brands and models of lenses and bodies might have problems such as slow focusing speed and reduced accuracy, which would affect the shooting efficiency. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
The Nikon DK lens was not a full-frame lens, but a lens suitable for APS-C frame (half-frame) cameras. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Nikon had many classic full-frame lenses. The following were some of the more classic lenses: - The Nikkor Z 24 - 200mm f/4 - 6.3 VR lens had a focal length ranging from wide-angle to telephoto. It was lightweight and had excellent image quality, which could meet the shooting needs of most users. - The Nikkor Z 50mm f/1.8S full-frame fixed-focus lens was suitable for users who pursued extreme image quality and dark light shooting. - Ais Nikon lens, suitable for three kinds of exposure procedures, can be used with most Nikon bodies, high compatibility. - Nikon Nikkor Z 14 - 30mm f/4S super wide-angle lens (zoom). - Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16 - 35mm f/4G ED VR super wide-angle zoom lens with two focusing modes (M/A| M)。 - Nikon AF18mm f2.8D super wide-angle lens. - Old Frog 10mmF2.8, as Old Frog's 10th anniversary work, was Old Frog's first full-frame autofocus super wide-angle lens. - The Z85F1.2 lens was excellent at shooting portraits. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Based on the reference materials, the SonyA7M4 with a half-frame lens was fine. For example, the 18 - 50 camera lens of SIGMA-A was shot in 4K 60P on the Sony-A-7M4.(With 1.5X crop, shooting 4K60P with a full-frame lens would start at 36mm, and the wide-angle would be missing), using a half-frame lens like the 18 - 50 to shoot 4K60P could make up for the problem of the wide-angle. Moreover, there were also people who ridiculed the A7M4 for being good with a Sima 18 - 50 or a Tenglong 17 - 70 (both of which were APS-C frame lenses). These half-frame lenses were a good choice for the A7M4 to shoot 4K60P. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
The Nikon AF-S DK Nikkor 18 - 105mm f/3.5 - 5.6G ED VR lens was suitable for Nikon's entry-level half-frame lens. It was economical and cost-effective. It inherited the fine tradition of Nikon's dog-headed but not dog-headed, and the imaging effect was better. It had SWM quiet wave motor, ED low dispersion lens, and VR anti-shake. The focal length was practical, the image sharpness and color performance were good, and the internal parameters could be adjusted to take good photos. However, the distortion at the 18 - 24 wide-angle end was more obvious, and the anti-glare ability was not very strong. The current price was about 1600 yuan. The Nikon AF-S DK Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G was also suitable as a Nikon entry-level half-frame lens. Its advantage was that it had a large aperture and had obvious advantages in low light conditions. It was very light and fast focusing speed. The equivalent focal length on the half-frame machine was 52.5mm, which was equivalent to a standard lens. It was more practical than 50mm, but there would be purple edges when the aperture was opened to 1.8. The Nikkor Z DV 12 - 28mm f/3.5 - 5.6 PZ VR was also more suitable for long-term hanging on a half-frame micro-single. It could be used for photo recording and also provide a more powerful video performance for vlog recording. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
For DSLR half-frame cameras, the following are some options that can be used as a must-have camera lens: 1. * * 35mm fixed-focus lens **: such as 35mmF1.4, 35mmF1.8, 35mmF2.0, etc. The 35mm fixed-focus lens was a commonly used lens. For example, the Canon RF35f/1.8 lens had its own anti-shake function. It was a standard biscuit lens, super light, and had a good on-camera look. The image quality was remarkable. In addition to being used to shoot full-body portraits, it also had macro shooting capabilities, making it more convenient for indoor and outdoor shooting. 2. * * 18 - 135mm lens **: Can cover a wide focal length, suitable for shooting a variety of scenes, from wide-angle to medium-long focal length can meet daily needs. 3. * * 24 - 105mm lens **: This focal length lens is more suitable for full-frame shots. It can be used to shoot wide-angle, portrait, and slightly distant scenes. It is also a more commonly used lens option. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Nikon had the AF-S Nikkor 24 - 120mm f/4G ED VR lens, which was a full-frame lens with a reference price of 7499 yuan, and the Nikon NikkOR Z 24 - 120mm f/4S lens, which cost about 7999 yuan. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
A full-frame camera could be equipped with a half-frame lens, but there were some problems. For example, Canon cameras basically couldn't fit a half-frame lens. Nikon and Soni's full-frame bodies could fit a half-frame lens and automatically recognize the lens information. The body would change to half-frame mode, but this would cause a large circle outside the sensor to be lost, causing a lot of waste. There might also be dark corners (although some half-frame lenses didn't have obvious dark corners). In addition, the resolution of a full-frame camera might not be as high as that of a half-frame camera after installing a half-frame lens. However, in some special cases, such as when the camera shot 4K 60P video with 1.5X trimming (which happened to be APS-C format), for better video quality or to get some focal length, some people would choose to use a half-frame lens with a full-frame body. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
If the half-frame was upgraded to full-frame, there were many ways to deal with the lens: - ** Continue to use some shots **: - It was possible to use a full-frame lens on a half-frame camera, but there was a problem with the angle of view. For example, when half-frame cameras from Nikon, Sonny, and other brands used full-frame lenses, the focal length of the lens needed to be multiplied by a conversion factor of 1.5 (Nikon, Sony, etc.) or 1.6 (Canon), which would narrow the wide-angle end. However, if there were some full-frame lenses with commonly used focal lengths, they could continue to be used after upgrading the full-frame body, and they could play their original optical performance, such as large aperture, high image quality, and other advantages. - In terms of video shooting, the full-frame lens could also continue to be used on the full-frame body. For example, a camera such as the SonyA7M4 had a 1.5X crop when shooting 4K 60P video, which was equivalent to the APS-C format. In this case, some full-frame lenses could still be used for shooting, but the effect of the change in focal length on the shot had to be considered. - ** Selling lenses **: If there are any half-frame lenses that are no longer needed, you can consider selling them. This way, he could use some of his money to buy a new full-frame lens or body. - ** Using a half-frame lens for special scenes **: In some cases, a half-frame lens can be used with a full-frame camera. For example, when shooting 4K 60P videos, the half-frame lens could provide a more suitable focal length because the camera had a 1.5X crop. For example, the Sima 18 - 50 2.8 lens was equivalent to 27 - 75 focal lengths on a half-frame camera. Compared to some full-frame lenses, it might be more suitable for shooting. Moreover, half-frame lenses often had advantages in terms of price, weight, and size. - ** Keep the lens as a backup **: Even if you upgrade to a full-frame camera, you can still keep a half-frame lens as a backup. For example, in some special shooting scenes, the lightness of the half-frame lens might bring convenience, or in the case of a malfunction of the full-frame lens, the half-frame lens could be used temporarily. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Full-frame cameras could use half-frame lenses, but there were some situations that needed to be considered. In terms of optical effects, when a full-frame camera uses a half-frame lens, if the APS-C format mode (similar to the trimming mode) is turned on, the equivalent focal length of the half-frame lens will change. For example, the SIGMA231.4 lens is equivalent to a 35mm lens when this mode is turned on on the full-frame A7R3. If it was not activated, there would be black circles and dark corners. Even if the dark corners could be weakened by the light circle, the black circles could still exist. In terms of pixel-wise, different full-frame cameras had different pixel-wise values after APS-C frame trimming. Generally, the original pixel-wise value was divided by 2.25 to 2.4. For example, the pixel-wise value of the Sony-A7R3 after trimming was reduced from about 42 million to about 17.8 million. In practical applications, many people chose to use a half-frame lens with a full-frame camera for the following reasons: 1. Equipment upgrade factor: Previously used APS-C micro-camera, after changing to full-frame micro-camera, the previously purchased APS-C lens can continue to be used. 2. Video shooting factors: Many cameras have a 1.5X crop (which happens to be APS-C format) when shooting a specific video format (such as 4K60P), such as the SonyA7M4, A7C2, Nikon Z62, ZF, Matsushita S5, S52, S1H, etc. Using a half-frame lens to shoot a video directly, there was no need to worry about the loss of a full-frame lens after trimming. For example, the 1.5X cropped 4K 30P of the SonyA7R5 was super-sample. For better video quality, one could also use a half-frame lens to shoot 1.5X cropped videos. The same was true for the Canon Eos R5. 3. The characteristics of the lens: In some video shooting scenes, the focal length and aperture of a full-frame lens may not be as suitable as a half-frame lens when the camera has been cropped. For example, some full-frame standard zoom lenses lost their wide angle under the camera's 1.5X crop, while half-frame lenses might have a more suitable equivalent focal length and larger aperture. However, there were certain limitations to using a half-frame lens for a full-frame camera: 1. When crop is turned on, there will be fewer pixelation, which may affect the quality of the image and the space for post-processing. 2. If the trimming mode was not turned on, there might be problems such as black circles and dark corners on the screen. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
