Canon is infamous for their annoying 4K crop.

On lower end cameras it’s because the CPU can’t process downsizing the resolution fast enough to use the full image sensor. So it’s cropped down to 8 MP of the image sensor

But, as far as I know, full HD should not have any crop, unless your have "digital IS" switched on.
