A few weeks ago I did a demonstration on the cropability of the Canon EOS 6D paired with the Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM lens.I did a similar crop demonstration with the Canon EOS 7D Mark II and Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM lens.
The two cropped images below from a modern 20 Mega-pixel Canon crop-sensor body illustrates the extreme cropping capability of the non full frame sensor (in retaining a fair amount of acceptable detail).
Each cropped image with the original RAW file just saved as a JPG. Some post-processing and noise reduction in Lightroom 6 on the crops.
