"You are obviously getting a very good focus with that lens. but if you are at 200 feet away, With a lens that will give you the equivalent size image, You would probably see a big difference in image quality."

I agree it is somewhat ambiguous:
"a lens that will give you the equivalent size image" = same apparent magnification?
"You would probably see a big difference in image quality" = up or down?
It is clear he would rather crop a big sensor in PP than a small sensor with big glass out in the field.
But I will let him speak for himself.
A couple of crops off the m4/3 sensor at about a distance of 40 feet.
2 and 0.8 mp.
