Crop factor. Is this photography term important? Do I need to know this? Yes, if you use a micro four thirds camera or cropped sensor camera, you must know this.

Crop factors relate to the different sizes of digital camera sensors. This is about the sensor's physical size and how this affects the focal length selected and the effective focal length you get.

In this episode, I tell you.

• What crop factor is.
• Why does it affect the focal length you get with your lens?
• What different crop factors are there?      
• What if I use a phone to take photos and not a camera?
• What if I use a film camera?
• And finally, what I do.

All explained in plain English, without the irrelevant detail, in less than 27 (ish) minutes!
