The diagram is always interesting. It omits Fuji's X-mount cameras whose sensors equal Nikon's APS-C - I only know that because I've been shooting Fuji gear of late. The same diagram has been published here numerous times.

Of course it does! At least in photography it does. The only ones who love to find a lot of if and buts, excuses and forced rationalizations are some of the owners of small sensor cameras. They try and try but the harsh reality is that a FF sensor gives a much better image quality than a small one.

Those small sensor people you refer to have too much time on their hands.
I have a Sony APS-C, for which I make no apology. I'm perfectly happy with it. >>>Alan

I agree. All gears are capable of getting good images, specially these days. But when some these geniuses here start making absurd claims and start threads that look more like paid advertisements it kind of rub me in the wrong way! LOL!

Indeed, size does matter. I found this useful.
Yes, and the electronics inside a camera also matter.

Especially the quality of the processor in my opinion.

Whatever floats your boat. It shouldn't matter to you what others choose to shoot. Worry less, and shoot more

Non sequitur.

Image quality depends on sooo much more than the size of the sensor!

I find it interesting when you compare Nikon to Canon. Canon's APS sensor is slightly smaller than Nikon's and since about 80% of the cost of new camera is in the sensor, Canon's are usually a little cheaper than Nikon. So when you have two the two cameras at the same megapixels two side by side, you are not comparing apples to apples and I doubt most people even know this.

What really matters is lines of resolution. Computer processors get faster and more efficient as they get smaller. They will eventually produce an incredibly small but sensitive imaging device with very high resolution. With a standard 35mm lens gathering the light, you will get an amazing machine. In early photography you needed a massive negative to make a contact print. We are beyond that now. With all that being said, I love shooting FF.
