After all the things I learned the past year on this forum why I should not buy m43:

- m43 gather 4x less light than FF

- too much DOF, according to some

Of course the other part of some, me included,think you can never have enough DOF

Greetings Trevor,

That's the first thing I do is to check everything in focus and sharp.

Often I find the one eye on focus with head and nose, or beak, blurred.

It's not that easy even on m43 DOF.  I still have to work on my technique to resolve the issue.

Or maybe a more heavily cropped sensor like an iPhone.

Here, the beak is not in focus.!

Best

Ask not what the camera can do, ask what you can do with the camera.
