August 25, 2014 at 7:47 pmThere are differences in how the background looks and how the background falls off between the 2 types of sensors. The difference is most pronounced when comparing cameras side-by-side. In a normal sequence of images I think it would be challenging to differentiate between full and cropped sensors (though I’m sure some on here will disagree with me). I don’t think the differences are all that extreme between the 2, but there are differences.
And also remember that there are many types of “crop” sensors – Super35, Super16, Micro Four-Thirds, etc. All of these sensor will act and react to light a bit differently when compared with each other and when compared with a full frame camera. I think Zack at Ded Pixel was right that there’s not that much of a difference nowadays like there was: https://dedpxl.com/crop-or-crap-math-or-moment/

August 25, 2014 at 8:15 pmYes, its a very interesting question I thought as well.
I can tell if you put to photos next to eachother (I think I could, haha).
But even then , if the full frame is shot at F22, hmmm,
But The real question I have is: if there is nothing to compare,
Just one Pic…. or one video…. with no tecjnical info, would a normal profesional be able to see if it is shot on cropped sensor?

Possible – sure. Probable – I don’t think so. I’m sure a master DP would have a shot. The rest of us not so much.
Just my humble opinion though….
