![]() Show me a 9' by 6' print of a highly detailed landscape hung at eye level in the lobby of a 5 star hotel or restaurant, and then I will be quite impressed. No need at all for world class detail and resolution in those cases. I didn't find anything out of the commonplace about using that camera for that poster.ĭo you realize that when people talk about a given camera or sensor size being "good enough" for a given print size, they are typically talking about fine art images of highly detailed scenes, not just stuff cranked our for advertising and promotion? Any old crap can be used for posters, billboards, etc, because they are just being used to push a product or promote an event. I am not sure why you were interested in this enough to show me this video. The vast, vast, VAST majority of photos on billboards are shot with FF and APS-C sensors. If you are interested in learning more about the pros and cons of different sensor sizes, be sure to check out Which Sensor Size Suits Your Type of Photography the Best? There are also many benefits to using cameras with smaller sensors, such as faster burst shooting, lower cost, size and weight savings, and wider depth-of-field. This means that you probably only need a full-frame or medium format camera if you plan to print your images large or to meet commercial client requirements. Many photographers purchase very expensive top-shelf cameras and lenses, yet only share their images on social media or their website, which means you are only ever seeing a down-sampled, lower resolution image. ![]() ![]() ![]() What we should learn from this is that as photographers, we should put more thought into our selection of a camera system. Viewed digitally at full size, it takes a very trained eye to be able to spot the differences, and even then the Fujifilm file doesn't necessarily look better in this viewing scenario. Coming to you from Gavin Hardcastle, AKA Fototripper, this video challenges viewers to spot the differences between two identical images taken on the Fujifilm GFX-100S and the Sony A6000. ![]()
