Focal length equivalents & field of view#

Multiply any focal length by 1.61 to get the full-frame field of view. Angles are for a rectilinear lens focused at infinity.

Equivalent aperture#

Exposure is identical at the same f-number on any format; equivalence only describes depth of field and total light.

Diffraction & pixel pitch#

With 3.20 µm pixels, diffraction starts to soften pixel-level detail around f/4.8. For maximum sharpness keep landscapes between f/2.8 and f/5; stopping down further trades detail for depth of field.

Night-sky exposure limits#

Longest exposure before stars trail. The NPF rule accounts for pixel pitch and is stricter than the classic 500 rule — use it for pin-sharp stars on high-resolution sensors.

Handheld shutter speed guide#

The reciprocal rule uses the equivalent focal length. High-resolution sensors may need one stop faster than this for pixel-sharp results.

Frequently asked questions#

What is the crop factor of the Canon EOS R7?

The Canon EOS R7 has a crop factor of 1.61× relative to 35 mm full frame (diagonal 26.8 mm vs 43.3 mm).

What size is the Canon EOS R7 sensor?

22.3 × 14.9 mm (APS-C (Canon)), an area of 332 mm² — 38% of full frame.

Is the Canon EOS R7 full frame?

No — its sensor is APS-C (Canon), which is 2.6× smaller in area than full frame.

How many megapixels does the Canon EOS R7 have?

32.5 megapixels (6,960 × 4,640 pixels), enough for a 23 × 15 inch print at 300 DPI.

What lens mount does the Canon EOS R7 use?

The Canon EOS R7 uses the Canon RF (flange distance 20.00 mm).

How long can I expose the night sky with the Canon EOS R7?

With a 12 mm lens (19 mm equivalent) the 500 rule gives 26 s and the stricter NPF rule at f/2.8 gives 16 s.
