Why I Love Full-Frame

[snerd]

Oh! That 21 is a Gen 3 with the ambidextrous mag release and Picatinny rail. It's a sweet shooter fer sure!

Now, you all know I'm a big fake, don't ya? Drive a 4-cylinder Altima and down to only 2 pistols.

Does it have antlers mounted on the front? I mean if you don't have a gun rack that is an acceptable substitute you know.

I've already divulged way too much. Next you'll want to know which trailer park
I'm in!

Well hopefully you picked one of the classier ones

I tell ya what............ when I strap my 70-200L f/2.8 IS II onto my 5D3..................... things start happening!!

Que porn music here...

Lol

those full frame people just think they are better than us crop frame people.
Maybe we do need to buy full frames?

Nah. I learned a few things early on in life. First, you can't buy your way out of an inferiority complex. Second, when it says "High Voltage", they really aren't kidding. Third, the minute one of your friends says, "Hey guys watch this" just go ahead and start dialing 911 right then and there.

I don't know. I would be tempted to go full frame for the obvious benefits especially of the lower light capability especially if I got into more portrait work or something giving me more of a need.. I just wish they could make them smaller with smaller sensors so they were more portable and lighter to use for a walk around too.

but those two pistols are both 50 calibers ...

Glocks. A G-19 (9mm) and G-21SF (45 ACP). The SF stands for "short frame", for my smaller, silky hands. Shoots like a cannon, though!! Ka-Boom!!!!

I would love if Nikon came out with a Mirrorless FF that accepted existing dSLR lenses.
For some of my uses I don't need the mirror or bulk at all.
But the low light and dynamic range of the FF Nikons is fantastic. That is my primary use of it. I plan on taking some more night shots of things I've normally taken during the day, just to see what I can pull out of the photo.

You'll be surprised about how much you can recover. @sscarmack has some really good examples.

I've recovered alot from misc shots when I've meandered around the city at night. But I wasn't purposely doing it for that effect. I'm going to plan something out .. if it ever gets warm again.

suppose if nothing else and you get attacked or mugged or something you will have a bigger item to swing at them.

That's what Aluminum tripods are for - they are great urban melee weapons.

really wouldn't matter long as they were sigs, glocks or something decent.
In fact I have a tanfoglio .45 which I love.

if you mean the car, well... no matter.
They are all junk.
How the car companies can make cars for eighty years and still mess it up is beyond my scope of reasoning.

I have my fists

awaiting the haters in 3, 2...

There is literally no difference between a FF and a Crop camera if you take all the differences out of the equation.

a $99 P&S is virtually the same as a $299 P&S
and the $299 P&S is virtually the same as the $300 dslr
and the $300 dslr is virtually the same as the $900 dslr
and the $900 dslr is virtually the same as the $2000 dslr

as long as you discount the differences to a trivial status
then the $99 P&S is as good as the $2000 dslr

But wait…
You forgot that the "free with a 2-year plan" cell phone is virtually the same as a $99 P&S!

the Free cell phone is better than the $2k dslr.
There was a thread about that recently.

because it's free and can take pictures?

Anyone would think full frame is a new thing I've always had it since the 70's
