What I like about the crop body is the extra reach when shooting for distance. I like t
I shoot both a APS-C Pentax K3ii, and a K1Mii, the idea that crop factor changes the focal length of a lens is a common misconception. Crop factor only changes the FOV. If you shoot the same lens on a APS-C and a FF and crop the FF to the equivalent FOV it's the same image. A good read https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/photography/tips-and-solutions/understanding-crop-factor
As I like to shoot a little loose so I can crop for a specific print later, I generally use the FF. My K3ii paired with a DA18-135, is a great walk around combo because of its luggter weight.Most FF bodies have a Crop Mode that only uses part of the sensor. I never use it because I've never found an advantage. Seems senseless to not capture all the scene possible, when you can crop post.
