I tried to read all this thread but couldn't keep up with all that was said 😕
Please help me out on a couple of issues.
#1: If you use a lens that has a max f-stop of f:2.8 on a aps-c it will not act the same as if it was used on a FF (exposure & DOF)
#1 A: Would it act about 1/2 stop slower than if it was mounted on a FF? (exposure)
#1 B: DOF would be similar to 3.5 on a FF? (so on a aps-c body you would need to have around f:2 to achieve the same bokeh as the f:2.8 on a FF)?

#2: If I use a light meter and it tells me to shoot @ 1/200 & f:4. Would I get the same exposure using the same lens mounted on the FF and then moved to the aps-c body (using the exact same setting)?

My understanding is when you use a lens on an aps-c body you gain in the focus length but lose in the aperture. Is this not true?

Thanks for you input 😀 but keep it simple for my little brain 😵😵😵😵😵
