Re: Yes and No

That complicates it even more as the same lens will produce different low light photos on different cameras even with sensors of the same size. For example, according to dxomark.com so take our for what it is, Sony A7II is ~2400 but A7R2 is ~3400, NX500 ~1400. So compared to A7II you are 1.7x slower (but that's just ~1.3 for multiplying f stops) while A7R2 is exactly where it should be (crop is 1.54). So for A7II your lens "becomes" f/3.7 but for A7R2 is f/4.2.

And then you have people who prefer studio shots of dpreview.com and they see next to no difference between nx1 and A7II or A6300...

frozen was right - let it go, let it go...
