Why are FF images so much more pleasing than APS-C?

Perhaps I'm misreading you but medium and indeed large format is commonly used for landscape and architecture photography. This dof thing is IMHO a strange fixation.

Norm, I correctly picked the sensor size from low res images in the above blind test. Its just one data point and I won't promise 100% hit rate but there are qualities that sometimes are visible at smaller sizes.

Wow! I had them in the correct order! I formulated my thinking/observations before checking the exif this was my thinking:
  • I immediately thought the first one was apsc. For me you can usually tell smaller formats by crunched up colours, it's hard to explain but is more obvious when comparing really tiny sensors. Small formats feel less airy.

  • The second two I had to compare. I wasn't very sure but I don't' think I've seen that sort of airy wide framing look so relaxe((iq wise) on FF. Comparing the two I decided the last one was the largest format.


You can ruin a medium format photo in PP so that it looks like a apsc shot. Heavy handed PP will do this and I've seen examples of it. I'm an apsc shooter myself but have been intrigued by larger formats for a while. I usually want deep dof but feel that larger formats have advantages beyond dof control, a relaxed quality.
