Real world landscape examples of the detail in M43 vs fullframe?
1 day ago

I've been searching around the web trying to find some examples of the same landscape scene photographed with a M43 sensor vs a fullframe sensor. I've found a lot of discussion about it, and have been looking up pictures to try and compare it (e.g. looking at mountain photos with forest or etc on flickr) but haven't found an example of the same scene. When I bought my Canon 700D I remember seeing lots of examples vs the rest of the Canon line up, so I'm hoping for something similar.

People say you just have to work harder with M43, which is fine by me. But it makes it hard to tell if the images I'm looking at are as good as they get or not. Furthermore, a lot of the best images aren't available at full resolution because that's not what they are interested in showing.

Based on everything I've read, it seems likes the differences should be minimal under good lighting but I was just hoping to see for myself rather than buy into the system and then becoming one of those whiners about M43 quality because I didn't do my research to decide if it was right for me. I love the look and feel of M43, I'm fine with the EVF and I love the lens range. I've been considering which camera I want now since January this year (I have the Canon already so I've been in no rush), but I'm tired of reading through the forums all the time. I feel like the decision is just down to sensor detail now.

A lot of people say "if you are young and want to carry a full frame go ahead". Ultimately if money was no issue I would buy both, but unfortunately it's stretching the budget as it is to get one body and some nice lenses.
Because it will probably be brought up, I don't print but I am unashamedly someone who views photos in full magnification. I can appreciate photos that have great subject matter and little detail, but for myself one of the things I love about my own photos is being able zoom in and to soak up the detail in an image. It's obvious that the 16mp M43 sensor can take great pictures, I just want to understand what is realistic.
Thanks.
