One advantage is that wide-angle lenses designed for full-frame 35mm retain that same wide angle of view.]]> 2019-01-16 18:18:35 UTC https://padlet.com/skylardavis21232/p300h0ii97tp/wish/321374956 APS-c Camera skylardavis21232 https://padlet.com/skylardavis21232/p300h0ii97tp/wish/321375959 The crop factor allows you to figure out what the field of view would be in a 35-mm film format equivalent camera based on the actual focal length you are using on a APS-C camera. It also helps you compare lenses. The crop factor is always calculated by dividing the full format size by the size of the APS sensor.]]> 2019-01-16 18:20:07 UTC https://padlet.com/skylardavis21232/p300h0ii97tp/wish/321375959 Crop factor skylardavis21232 https://padlet.com/skylardavis21232/p300h0ii97tp/wish/321376377 In digital photography, the crop factor, format factor or focal length multiplier of an image sensor format is the ratio of the dimensions of a camera's imaging area compared to a reference format; most often, this term is applied to digital cameras, relative to 35 mm film format as a reference. ]]> 2019-01-16 18:20:47 UTC https://padlet.com/skylardavis21232/p300h0ii97tp/wish/321376377 Prime Lens skylardavis21232 https://padlet.com/skylardavis21232/p300h0ii97tp/wish/321376681
The term prime has come to mean the opposite of zoom—a fixed-focal-length, or unifocal lens.^[1]^[2]^[3]

While a prime lens of a given focal length is less versatile than a zoom lens, it is often of superior optical quality, wider maximum aperture, lighter weight, and smaller size. These advantages stem from having fewer moving parts, optical elements optimized for one particular focal length, and a less complicated lens formula that creates fewer optical aberration issues. Larger maximum aperture (smaller f-number) facilitates photography in lower light, and a shallower depth of field.

A normal lens or "normal prime" is a lens with a focal length about equal to the diagonal size of the film or sensor format, or that reproduces perspective that generally looks "natural" to a human observer under normal viewing conditions.
