Summary

In Focus , James and Chris debate whether high-resolution cameras with 60MP or 100MP sensors are really necessary. What's required for prints, what's practical for pro use, can your lenses even keep up with your sensor's resolution, and do we really need Canon's 400MP sensor? For our Gear Up section we get hands on with Fujifilm's latest instant compact camera, the Instax Mini LiPlay+. This has the biggest and most obvious addition we've ever seen in an instant camera – along with a divisive feature that Chris hates! Finally, in our Trouble Shooting segment, we get into the weeds of crop factor. Why is 35mm "full frame" the standard? Why don't APS-C lenses have the equivalent APS-C focal lengths on them? Why do all the manufacturers have different names for crop formats?!?!?
