Truth about sensor formats | with Michael Clark & GFX 100S

Bigger isn't always better. No more than a Ferrari is the best car for picking up supplies at the hardware store. There continues to be a great deal of rhetoric online that centres around the mega pixel race. Want to know the difference between big and small sensors?

We put the 102 mp GFX 100S to the test alongside a 61mp Full Frame camera, and a 26 mp APS-C. We tested and explored the practical differences along with a very in-depth conversation with Michael Clark - one of America's most trusted adventure and commercial photographers.

One caveat, is that due to length some information has been omitted. One example was exploring the latitude between the 16 bit & 14 bit files. I wasn't satisfied with the results - feeling like I really needed a professional retoucher to guide me through it. It's also worth mentioning that "16 bit" isn't true 16 bit. It's 15.4 and rounded up. Which may also be the reason we don't see as big of a change as we'd like.

Ultimately I believe that it is the cleanliness of the image (minimal shot noise) and the lenses that give MF it's look above any other factor.

**Error correction/Notice. The Sony image at 9:30 is actually the GFX 100s image (you can see that it's identical to the GFX image). This was likely caused due to a file naming issue and I didn't catch it in the edit. My apologies for the error.
