Just wondering - Been a Nikon user for years, but have thought about sticking my toe in the Canon world. Have an interest in the 5D Mark lll, and have been keeping an eye on availability (only used available). Have noted that there seems to be very few on the market as compared to other makes/models (lots of Mark lls listed).
From things I have read, the camera is referred to as a solid workhorse that has been used by professionals for years. Just wondering if there seems to be so few out there just because they are so loved that no one wants to give them up, or not many were purchased in the first place OR what? Any insight?

I am not sure that you create "more noise". What you do is to magnify the noise that was present when you took the photo. When you crop significantly your primary goal is to magnify or enlarge the bird; unfortunately you magnify everything in the photo including the artifacts or noise. Reducing noise and then sharpening are the last tasks I perform on a photo during my PP routine.

Jerry, appreciate the reviews but is on the D7500, not D750

Pro: Great camera
Con: Kinda pricey, but it's way down from its original price.
There are lots of reviews from people who review cameras for a living.

Would be interested in the Pros & Cons from those using the D750.

I think that SteveR is answering the OP's question correctly. The OP wants to know what FF lens he would get for a FF camera to get the same result that he gets on his crop camera and his 200mm DX lens. He would need to get a 300mm FF lens on a FF camera to SEE the same view (FOV), but he would get a 200mm FF lens on a FF camera to get the same result. The cropping is done in the camera with APS-C and in post processing with FF.
BillyBoy: Could you please restate, as I see a conflict in how you stated (or the way I read it). I see getting a 300mm for the same FOV, but then you seem to say that I'd need a 200mm lens.

You are incorrect in one aspect: Your 200mm is 200... (show quote)
Appreciate your thoughts, but your analysis goes further then I think I need. Sorry if I am not explaining correctly.
Going back to my original post, IF I took 100 pictures whose data read 200mm focal length and 300mm 35mm focal length (this is from a crop camera), but I know that in the future I'm going to be shooting with a FF, should whatever lens I purchase have a long end of 200mm or 300mm.
Just trying to use past shooting history to determine long end mms.

If you want to use a FF do everything lens, the current choice is largely made for you-a 28-300mm lens. Similarly, if you want a couple of zooms, the current 70-300mm afp is so good, you might not look at the 70-200mm f/4. Pair that with the 28-85mm.
Thanks for the reply, but not looking at the type of lens - just looking to determine what long end focal length I should look to based on a history of pictures.

If I understand you question, for a FF, the Focal Length and 35mm FL would be the same.
Jerry, I would agree since there is no "factor" involved with a FF. BUT for the picture taken, what is the appropriate number to go by. The zoom was set at 200mm but I'm also given the 35mm (FF) equivalent. So for the given picture now being shot on a FF, what number do I say it would be shot at? Do I need a MM of 200 or 300? Don't want to pick a focal length that won't meet my general needs.

Have a crop DSLR. Thinking of going to a Full Frame and trying to determine what the the longest focal length (on average) I am in need of....by reviewing pictures I have taken.
I shot Nikon, so I am fully aware of the "field of view" 1.5 factor. Soooo, when looking at the shooting data for a particular picture I'm provided with 2 figures, one for "Focal Length", the other for "35mm Focal length" For example the focal length shows 200MM and the 35 focal length shows 300MM (the affect of the 1.5 factor).
I'm trying to determine IF I had taken the picture with a Full Frame camera, which number should I be going by in helping me to determine (on average) which focal length on the long end I should be aiming at.
Appreciate your insight.

Love these type of pics. Be it an old building/home, car, etc....at one time they were new and being enjoyed by their owners. Has you guessing as to the history of the item.

yes, been there done that, but is Ritz now a good operating entity. Don't know that they are in the same category as Adorama.

Anyone had any dealings with Ritz Camera of late. My research shows they went BK about 5 years ago, but looking to see how they have been operating of late.
Looking at a possible purchase through Amazon, but item sold and shipped through Ritz.

Looks like the Nikon version is about twice that of the Sigma. Certainly worth trying.
The only possible negative with a 3rd party lens is the communication with the camera. Nikon doesn't always share their technical data for 3rd parties to make use of.
