You hear arguments about sensor size all the time. Full frame is better, crop sensors are terrible in low light … the list goes on. But does sensor size really matter when it comes down to the details of a photo?
In the video above from The Slanted Lens, Jay P. Morgan and Kenneth Merrill put five mirrorless cameras to the test. They look at things like noise, detail, color, dynamic range, high ISO and more. They discuss the advantages and disadvantages to each format, putting them against one another using equivalency testing.

Interesting article. For me, you can take great pictures with either full frame or crop sensors. The camera equipment is somewhat a mute point these days, its a lot more to do with the quality of your lens (and the creativity and skill of the person taking the photos)!
You didn’t compare all cameras in all tests. For example, where was the GFX in the 3200 ISO test? Would have been nice to see the 4 frame side-by-side comparison for all tests.
