Title pm. i have the 16mm prime on the EOS R full frame, and it looks to be cropped when compared to my friend’s 16mm by quite a bit.

could there be a crop mode/ setting on my camera that is contributing to this?

Can you supply some sample images?

What camera does your friend have?

Greetings,

The RF 16 mm f2.8 is a full frame lens.  The EOS R is a full frame camera.  No cropping occurs except in video mode.  Are you using an aspect setting other than 3:2 for still photos?

If this is the original EOS R, then when it is shooting movies in 4K a crop is automatically used, 

This is a screen grab of the manual where it explains this.

Thanks Brian. Hopefully one of these scenarios fits his use case.  🙂
