Conclusion

The Nikon d750 I introduced is a full frame camera developed by Nikon in 2014. Although the CMOS of this professional camera is very valuable, it is far from as fragile as it is now. Compared with CMOS, SLR reflector and focus screen camera are actually more fragile. The width of the full CMOS frame is different from that of the full CMOS frame of 35mm / 4 inches. Choosing an appropriate width can reduce the number of wipes.Therefore, the ideal effect can be achieved by selecting appropriate tools according to the appropriate frame size of the camera
