Three quick shots from the Motors Rodeo

I will put up some "action" shots later....have to get them uploaded to my website first.

But here are three shots from just playing around out there:

Re: Three quick shots from the Motors Rodeo

#2 has my vote as well.

Crop or full sensor, and what focal length did you use?

I shoot with a Canon 50D which is a crop sensor.

I used my Tokina 11-16mm which is designed for crop sensor cameras and the focal length was 12mm.

OK, so here's the questions I have and am sure others are thinking....

Crop Sensors
If you have a crop sensor camera (ex: 1.5) and you put a lens made for a crop sensor on it that displays 100mm, is it 100mm or 150mm? I'd have to guess 100.

If you have a crop sensor camera (ex: 1.5) and you put a lens made for a NON-crop sensor on it that displays 100mm, is it 100mm or 150mm? I'd have to guess 150.

Full Frames
If you have a full-frame sensor camera and you put a lens made for a crop sensor on it that displays 100mm, is it 100mm or 150mm? I have no idea.

If you have a full-frame sensor camera and you put a lens made for a full-frame sensor on it that displays 100mm, is it 100mm or 150mm? I'd have to guess 100.

I know my D90 is a 1.5 crop sensor and that's about it.

The way I understand this issue is that if you put a 100mm lense on a crop frame camera (1.5) the field of view you get with that combination is the same as if you had a 150mm lens on a full frame.

The crop does not give you a longer reach i.e. a 500mm lense does not magically become a 750mm lense but the field of view is equal to that of a 750mm lense on a full frame camera.

Here is a good article that probably explains this better than I can:

Re: Three quick shots from the Motors Rodeo

I'll read the article in a bit, but wouldn't the field of view translate to a 1.5 magnification since it's an SLR type camera and what you see is what's hitting the sensor (or in old school the film plane)

Does pose an interesting question.....

For a guy who hates on cop Harleys, you sure take pretty pictures of them!
