Re: I crop square fairly often.

I came across this article on choosing an appropriate aspect ratio.

You either have to have the right ratio in the camera sensor or welcome to the world (the real world) of crop compromise.

Fortunately I shoot a D800E and can now crop to a ridiculous degree and still print razor-sharp large format images.

Shoot it wide and crop with pride:-P (Just kidding, I think)

Besides square, I crop to 4X5 ratio. I rarely print a full image from a 2X3 ratio format camera. I was always a big fan of the square medium format cameras or the 6X4.5 format. It's probably one reason I gravitated to the olympus 4/3 cameras. Given how I crop, an aps-c sensor doesn't have a lot more usable area as I crop the sides off anyway.
