Crop frame or famously known as Crop factor is diagonal ratio of 35mm of image sensor's frame. It is also known as the focal length multiplier. So if you have a 50mm lens your crop factor increases your lens' maximum focal range, on the image sensor that is.


Full frame, this means that your image sensor is as big as a 35mm film format. This maximizes your images in camera's that has image sensors as this.
