Here's a photo I took this morning. (Latest sunrise of the year, should be memorialized) - Would a full-frame camera have done better?
I keep wondering if I should upgrade.
When would a full frame camera make a difference?

Better or not is not the question.
If the question is either yes or no, you will have your partial answer as the 'better' may come from the camera back too.
Something else, this is in the wrong section and should posted in the appropriate forum like 'For your consideration'.

I recommend getting a Full Frame camera if it would make you happy and excited to have a new camera to experiment with and have a lot of fun!

What full frame camera do you really, really want? I really want the Nikon D850, even though it is almost impossible that DH would let me. I am mortgage poor, but he's not.
Imagine ISO 64 which is lower than ISO 100, which would help in white-outs of snow, and bright sunny days with too much light

Yeah, I recommend a Hassie to renew the energy and inspiration...
For info, even in high ISO you so not blow out anything if you know what you are doing.

What is a Hassie? I'd like to know. I spent $8,000.00 on an embroidery/sewing machine about 10 years ago, and I got a lot of enjoyment out of it, for several years.
It was a Babylock Ellegante and it was wonderful. It was the best in the world at that time. I made a lot of embroidered quilts. Gave them as wedding/birthday/baby quilts. I also made myself 14 quilted/embroidered vests, and several matching skirts. It was a lot of fun.

They are refering to a Hasselblad X1D-50c, a medium format $9000 camera body is 50 Mp with about 100 Gb image size.

Short for iconic, medium format Hassleblad cameras. The bodies are expensive, and I’ve driven cars that cost less than their lenses.

Thanks for the information. I'm not interested in that class of camera. I won't have fun spending that much. I would like to get a printer that will print large files onto canvases, maybe, just maybe... like the glece prints that artists print out of their oil paintings... adn then touch-up. Check out some of my art work at www.cathypepin.com.

Would you really want to buy one of those? Do you really want that technology, or are you just saying so for the discussion? I want the D850 for the joy of using the best on the market, but maybe I should consider a SONY... except I saw a post about SONY garbage, that I wanted to read, (NOT on this forum) but it disappeared before I could read it.

I should have thought of that. A Hassie - perfect.

Done better in what?
Exposure? -Maybe
Image quality? -Possibly
Angle of view? -Wouldn't a full frame vs. a crop sensor just be like using a wider angle lens?

GalaxyCat, if you every win the lottery, you may want to consider one. If you think full frame is the ultimate image producer, think again. The larger pixels of the medium format out class full frame (out classes every other format). Without doing anything else, the dynamic range is now 16 plus a little. There are times that size does give one an edge. It earns the people using the Hasselblads very big bucks so they can afford the next generation Hasselblad. And even Hasselblad has recognized the value of mirrorless in the future.

I suspect -- No I'm damn sure -- That you already asked yourself that question --- Then once again looked at your photos & came back with a resounding --
Hell No !!!
So there you go
You have your answer
PS:
by the way ---
Good looking photo
Well now I've had second thoughts -- Downloaded the photo --
My EXIF came up with nothing & You know who is once again RIGHT -- It's blown out -- Not of course because your camera is crop framed ---
Don't know if I would have better but I being really old & really old fashioned would have taken a different approach --- Tripod; ISO: 100 & would have used my hand held light meter to find the reflective spot 18% -- plus just to be safe mirror lock-up
Who knows it just may have come out totally blown anyway
