Sensors approximating these dimensions are used in many digital single-lens reflex
cameras (DSLRs), Mirrorless interchangeable-lens cameras (DSLMs), and a few largesensor live-preview digital cameras. These include the Sony DSC-R1, Sigma DP1 and Leica
X1. APS-C size sensors are also used in a few digital rangefinders (e.g., the Epson R-D1).
Such sensors exist in many different variants depending on the manufacturer and camera
model.[1] All APS-C variants are considerably smaller than 35 mm standard film which
measures 3624 mm. Because of this devices with APS-C sensors are known as "cropped
frame". Sensor sizes range from 20.713.8 mm to 28.719.1 mm. Each variant results in a
slightly different angle of view from lenses at the same focal length and overall a much
narrower angle of view compared to 35 mm film. This is why each manufacturer offers a range
