Moon - 2 cameras compared

About this image

An experiment: 2 setups compared. The Nikon has the advantage of higher magnification, but has smaller chip, about the size of that of mobile phone. In spite of its smaller image size the Canon using a 35mm full frame size chip seems to show the same amount of detail. (?)
