While I have read this thread (and contributed) i have only just looked at that video.
What a load of tripe. The only thing i don't understand is how someone can talk such nonsense with such an air of confidence. Isn't he aware that he does not understand his subject?
BTW, he refers to a measure by dxomark of "perceived megapixels", but I could not find any reference to this measure on the dxomark website. Can someone give a dirct link?

APS-c is a film format. Advanced Photo System - Wikipedia
It stands for Advanced Photo System - Classic, which was a hybrid film/digital casette medium that was doomed from the outset to be overtaken very rapidly by full digital, as anyone with half a brain could have seen at the time. I remember when it was introduced discussing it with others with a general air of disbelief. The 16mm x 25mm APS-c format was adopted (more-or-less) as a sensor size in early DSLR cameras possibly because some camera makers already had the lens designs for it, and back then FF digital sensors were very expensive to make.
But you surely already knew that. Perhaps you did not spot it on the box, or it was never there. I always do a bit of prior research before I buy stuff.

Who goes out and buys a camera body without regards to the format?
