Dear reader, if this entry or my other blog entries don't answer your specific photography questions, you can call me on the phone anytime for advice by clicking here.Most people are using Digital SLR's these days, and it has just been recently that full frame sensors are being offered on
both Nikon and Canon cameras.
There are numerous pros and cons regarding smaller sensor sizes vs. full frame, 35mm sizes. The main advantage that I enjoy with full frame coverage is the appearance of a "thinner slice" of depth-of-field.
I won't get into the physics of why this happens, however the short answer is that you are able to get
closer to a subject with a full frame camera as opposed to a sub-full frame camera. When you are able to get closer to a subject, backgrounds always get more blurry (providing the aperture stays the same while you are moving forward).
When doing travel photography, such as my sample South Korean photograph, it is often aesthetically advantageous to have the smallest depth of field possible, as long as the subject's eyes are in focus.
A master of this technique is Steve McCurry. His travel portraits usually have the subject's eyes in focus, but everything else becomes a dreamy blur.
