It can be very tempting to use crop sensor lenses if you have just upgraded from the APS-C format. Often the answer is that it&#8217;s not the best idea. On the other hand, many current APS-C camera shooters might be tempted to use high quality, full frame lenses on their crop sensor cameras. This result is usually a lot better. But lets dig a little deeper into why that is&#8230;.<\/p>\n<h2>Can I Use My Crop Sensor Lenses on My Full-Frame Camera?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-11137\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uwphotographyguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/canonr516.jpg\" alt=\"Using a Crop Sensor Lens on a Full Frame Camera Can Result in a Loss in Resolution\" title=\"Using a Crop Sensor Lens on a Full Frame Camera Can Result in a Loss in Resolution\" width=\"534\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uwphotographyguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/canonr516.jpg 534w, https:\/\/www.uwphotographyguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/canonr516-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 534px) 100vw, 534px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Crop sensor cameras and lenses have the benefit of being typically much more affordable than full-frame systems. Many new photographers start with APS-C cameras like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluewaterphotostore.com\/sony-a6700-review\/\">Sony a6700<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluewaterphotostore.com\/canon-r7-underwater-review\/\">Canon R7<\/a> for this reason. These cameras have a smaller sensor than a full-frame camera &#8211; hence the term, &#8220;cropped&#8221;. An APS-C sensor has a 1.5x crop and a micro four thirds sensor has a 2x crop. Crop sensor cameras can share lens mounts with full frame cameras &#8211; like the Sony E mount, the Nikon Z mount, and the Canon RF mount.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When modern full-frame cameras (e.g., <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwphotographyguide.com\/canon-eos-r5-mark-ii-review\/\">Canon R5 Mark II<\/a>, <a href=\"\/nikon-z6iii-review\">Nikon Z6 III<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluewaterphotostore.com\/sony-a9-iii-underwater-review\/\">Sony A9 III<\/a>) sense a cropped sensor lens, they typically go into &#8220;crop mode&#8221; on their sensor. This essentially turns them into an APS-C camera with your APS-C lens. A common example of this is using the Canon 60mm EF-S macro lens with Canon full-frame cameras. However, a secondary effect of going into crop mode is that you lose resolution. So your 45 megapixel Canon R5 Mark II becomes a 17 megapixel camera. While you might be able to use the lens, you suffer a severe reduction in resolution and image quality.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, there are a few crop sensor lenses that can be used with full-frame cameras without cropping. Typically these are third party lenses like the Tokina 10-17mm fisheye lens. However, many modern cameras have difficulty reading older third party crop sensor lenses and generally recommend against it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Can I Use My Full-Frame Lenses on My Crop Sensor Camera?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-11138\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uwphotographyguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/canonr77.jpg\" alt=\"Using a Full Frame Lens on a Crop Sensor Camera Introduces Additional &quot;Crop Factor&quot;\" title=\"Using a Full Frame Lens on a Crop Sensor Camera Introduces Additional &quot;Crop Factor&quot;\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uwphotographyguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/canonr77.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.uwphotographyguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/canonr77-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 533px) 100vw, 533px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you have a crop sensor camera, prospects for using a full frame lens are much more optimistic. This is because a larger lens easily fits over a smaller sensor. You just have to remember the &#8220;crop factor&#8221; still applies. So a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluewaterphotostore.com\/sony-90mm-macro-review\">Sony 90mm macro lens<\/a> becomes a Sony 135mm macro lens on an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluewaterphotostore.com\/sony-a6700-review\/\">APS-C sensored Sony a6700 camera<\/a>. For macro photography this can be a benefit as you have a longer lens. For wide angle photography, your lens would not be as wide as it would be on a full-frame camera. As long as the full frame lens is the same lens mount as your crop sensor camera, then you should have comparable autofocus as you would find on a full-frame camera.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Old And New Lens Mounts<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes adapting a cropped sensor or full frame lens to your camera requires a mount adapter like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluewaterphotostore.com\/nikon-ftz-ii-mount-adapter\/\">Nikon FTZ adapter<\/a> or the Canon EF-EOS R adapter. These adapters are designed to adapt DSLR lenses (which can be cropped or full-frame) to modern mirrorless cameras. Typically, if you aren&#8217;t using a third party lens brand, there is no degradation in autofocus speed. The mounts don&#8217;t have internal glass, your lens just needs to be the correct distance from the sensor in order to properly focus.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusions<\/h2>\n<p>While it can be tempting to use your crop sensor lenses on your new full-frame camera, we recommend sticking to full frame lenses. However, full-frame lenses are often the best options for underwater photography with a crop sensor camera. For example the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uwphotographyguide.com\/canon-100-rf-macro-lens-review\/\">Canon RF 100mm macro<\/a> is a popular lens choice with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluewaterphotostore.com\/canon-r7-underwater-review\/\">Canon R7<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluewaterphotostore.com\/canon-r10-underwater-review\/\">R10<\/a> cropped sensor camera.
