Give or take, due to different lenses and technologies, it has been proven that equivalence works. It is just that it doesn´t because a) the lenses, b)you don´t have equivalent setup for the smaller system. 35mm f/1.4 at ISO100 on FF means 22mm f/0,88 ISO62 on Canon APS-C, or 17,5mm f/0,7, ISO50 on MFT. Many MFT cameras start at ISO200. So you are already two stops into amplification to get the same image brightness as from FF, and there is nothing you can do about it. Then obviously, small lenses do not scale with resolution. The smaller these are, the less overall resolution they can transfer (again, all else being equal). There is no consumer grade small lens, that can resolve what FF or MF lenses can.

classic answer (im a highend tradie)😁 i just dont say anything anymore and just let the handyman photographers think they know better.

You are a legend in your own mind.

Some things might not scale, though, like the efficiency of light capture at f/0.9. Are BSI sensors immune to light loss with smaller pixels? We know that they are not immune with FSI sensors, even with microlenses. Certainly, the low-f-number losses are expected to be much smaller with BSI, but is it close to nil?
-
All good questions.

You forgot to square your crop factors for ISO/exposure. ISO 100 on a FF is equivalent to 39 on a 1.6x crop, and 25 on a 2x crop.
Even so, the smaller sensors tend to have less visible read noise with less spatial correlation. When was the last time you saw horizontal banding or large chromatic blotches on a 1" sensor? Smaller sensor are, in general, slightly superior regarding adding less visible noise to a given total exposure times area input.
Go to the DPR Studio Comparison tool, and compare pixel-level view where pixel pitches are in 1.4x, 2x, 2.8x ratios, etc, and normalize ISO for "light per pixel". You will see zero benefit for larger pixels, in general (individual outliers notwithstanding). Do the same when sensor areas are in ratios of about 2x, 4x, 8x, etc, and you will see the same. Go to the highest ISOs, and turn on the stressful incandescent mode, and still, the smaller sensors and pixels do as good or better with the same total light, especially when the smaller pixels are also on a smaller sensor.
On average, smaller sensors and their readouts create less visible, added noise than larger sensors, with the same area times exposure. There is no disadvantage to smaller sensors, whatsoever, other than limited area. The best 1" sensors give less visible noise with the same very low exposure times area than FF cameras like the Nikon D5 and Sony A7S3.
Here's an example, and don't forget that the smaller sensors here are more handicapped diffraction-wise by the shooter's choices, so signal doesn't cut through noise as well as it might in equivalent f-numbers:
-
The lithography for sensors that small can be done in one shot per mask, which helps.
-
I still think the future of image capturing is going to be in some sort of vector-like or 3D capturing method that will make formats pretty obsolete.
-
Promises, promises ...
That's good, because they do know better.

Harold : hey joe i just bougth this new eastwing hammer today
Joe, hey man thats awesome
Harold. i bought the 20ounce model
joe: why did you buy that one you should have bought the 16. because if you take 20 x 35 / g force of the human arm x 4.000 blps per sq inch multiplied
buy your artheritise so x= c#xd56.000+a9345.88) x dr /234,55. the 16 would have been better driving a nail into a peice of hardwood thats hardness
= 34 / the sectional - friction x m2 / 4.5678 + the moisture content of timber would have been better.Harold: nah its all good Joe because i use different size nails and different timber species.
Joe: thats ok if you dont like the utimate force vers efficency out of your hammer, i much prefer to know how the universe works before i ever buy a new tool.
Harold: what ever... i just like to build things 🤣🤣😁

Thats to funny.
Just think GB i could write a 100,000 word paper on the use of a hammer and quality for a PHD, id then be called Dr DonaldB 😎🙄🤨
-
The link is brilliant- And it is nice to see a witty conversation.
-
-
Its a classic. im saving the link.
just today my nailgun compressor ive had for 37 years has finally died 😌😌 off to buy a new one tomorrow if i cant fixe the old girl.
-
😀😃🙂 it's estwing you old bugga and I have 16, 20 and 24oz framing. 😀 yeah right tool for the right job.
-
My fav is the 20 oz but i have lost my last one ,probally had it for 20 years but it was buggered anyway some leather was missing and just ran out of electrical tape to fix it 😁but i mainly use a 12 oz timber handle atm because my hands are not real good.
just tried fixing my compressor but the windings are finally gone and not worth replaceing the motor that i doubt you could even buy today. so off shopping
for a new toy tomorrow 😁
