I do understand what you are saying and again my point was to point out the difference and the advantage of a crop sensor camera when compared to a FF camera with about the same number of pixels. Now you take that lens that was designed for a FF camera (35mm) and where it may be marginal on a FF it may excel on a crop due to lack of fall off on the edges. There are different tools to get the job done. I use the 7DMKII with a 1.4 with a 300mmf/2.8 and a 600mmf/4.0 for BIF or very small subjects when I want to fill the frame because I can't get any closer to my subject. Those same lenses also work very well with my 1DXMKII when I can get close. I try to fill the frame so I don't have to crop very much in PP. For what it's worth my degree and $5 bucks may still buy me a cup of coffee, maybe not. I see that you are still teaching, I gave that up, teaching in the classroom, many years ago but still enjoy teaching in a more relaxed manner. I don't know everything but I'm always trying to learn and understand more each day. I hope you enjoy teaching, I do.

I think we are in complete agreement. Agree on the value of that degree, at least economically. I stopped doing photography in 1979 and began a career in the learning field designing rather than teaching. I sold my business and retired a year ago and finally went back to working and teaching in photography. I haven't been happier in years. Thanks for asking.
