What is the difference between SLR, mirrorless, single, or what? Let s put it simply.

DSLR: Has a reflector that can be raised and lowered (you can see it by removing the lens) and uses an optical viewfinder.

Representative models: Sony DSLR-A550, Canon EOS 550D, Nikon D90 Advantages: Comfortable framing, "what you see is what you get".

Cons: The sound cannot be eliminated when shooting, and the focusing speed is slow when in live view.

Single-electric: Has a fixed translucent reflector with an electronic viewfinder.

Representative model: Sony SLT-A55 SLT-A33 Advantages: Fast continuous shooting, autofocus when shooting.

Disadvantages: Compared with SLR, it consumes more power.

Mirrorless: There is no reflector, and the shape is more similar to the traditional small DC, but the lens can be changed.

Representative model: Sony NEX-5C Olympus e-PL1 advantages: small size, light weight, easy to carry.

Disadvantages: slow focusing; The small body is top-heavy when accommodating a larger telephoto lens.

To make it a little simpler for you:

SLR, mirrorless, and single electric are all single-lens (interchangeable lens) cameras, among them, mirrorless and single-electric are actually the same type of camera, but some people call it mirrorless and some call it single-lendic.

SLR - it is a single-lens reflex optical viewfinder camera;

Mirrorless and single-electric - it is a single-lens electronic viewfinder camera (that is, a simplified and reduced single-lens reflex camera).

The main difference between SLR and mirrorless and single electric is that SLR has two functions of reflective optical framing and electronic framing at the same time, while micro mirrorless and single electric do not have reflective optical framing function, only one function of electronic framing.

In this way, in relatively bright occasions (such as sunlight), due to the strong light, it is not easy for the electronic framing to see the scene to be photographed clearly, while the reflective optical framing will not be affected.

Of course, the volume of mirrorless and single-lens cameras is much smaller than that of SLR and is more portable, but because it is a simplified and reduced SLR camera, the function is worse than that of SLR.

First of all, it's not exactly the same thing, little by little:

SLR: refers to a single-lens reflex camera, this kind of camera you see the image is the state of the last imaging, as opposed to the rangefinder focus inspection camera, there is a set of lenses and the camera lens to focus to check the imaging effect; Now the main intention of using a DSLR has been changed, in order to be able to use more lenses without changing the body to meet different shooting requirements. The corresponding mirrorless is the meaning of micro SLR.

Single-electric: Another concept, a digital camera with only one battery is called a single battery, and the two are dual-electric. . . Nothing learned.

I don't fix the mistake, but I'm sorry that the last sentence is wrong.

Monoelectric is the abbreviation of single-lens electronic framing, I hope it will not mislead newcomers, sorry again.

First of all, the word "single" is explained: "SLR" is known as the abbreviation of "single-lens reflex viewfinder camera", which is relative to the "dual-lens reflex viewfinder camera" from the middle to the end of the last century (the representative work of the domestic machine is the Seagull 4 series), "double-reflex" has 2 lenses juxtaposed up and down, one lens is used for shooting, and the other lens is only used for framing; The "single lens" is used for both framing and shooting (depending on the reflector to rise and fall and play different roles). The "rangefinder camera" is another type of camera that is juxtaposed with the two camps mentioned above, with a single lens used for shooting and framing through an optical viewfinder (with a similar field of view and a much simpler optical system than a lens).

These three types of cameras have nothing to do with the materials used for imaging, whether they use silver salt film or CCD CMOS, they are all called "SLR" and "rangefinder".

In the digital age, "single electricity" and "mirrorless" are a single lens used for framing and shooting, and they all rely on the LCD screen for electronic image display, which is actually a kind of color.

Now the mirrorless market is still very immature, the landlord chooses or chooses the SLR is good, recommend Canon 60D, the machine is a good choice for photography enthusiasts, enthusiasts, and travelers I prefer the 60D megapixel resolution rotating LCD screen, a new control dial and in-camera RAW processing, creative filters and other functions, these functions are the first time to appear on the EOS series of machines, which can make users more handy, and can improve the flexibility of creation

The most fundamental difference is the way of framing and focusing.

When using an optical viewfinder, the image is generated by direct observation of the light coming in from the lens with the naked eye, and the focus is performed using the phase contrast focusing method.

When framing with an LCD screen, the optical viewfinder is black, and the light enters from the lens and is directly illuminated on the CMOS, and then the contrast of the image is analyzed by the processor for contrast focusing.

Since the design purpose of the SLR camera is mainly to frame through the optical viewfinder, the contrast brother block focusing performance carried by the Xianhu SLR is very average, and the speed is slow, which is not conducive to capturing, and the optical viewfinder must be used when using the faster phase difference focusing, so it is more difficult to frame the shooting at special angles such as high or low position.

But this phenomenon is not suitable for single-camera cameras. Sony's transflective SLR (Sony calls it a single battery) is viewed by LCD or EVF, but uses phase difference focusing; Panasonic Olympus single electric (similar Sony is called micro mirrorless) uses pure contrast focusing, but the speed and accuracy are higher than the phase difference focusing of ordinary SLR.

To put it simply.

A DSLR is a single-lens reflex camera that has a movable mirror that is used for framing, moving down to make way for the light path when shooting, and the optical eyepiece is framing.

The monoelectric retains most of the structure of the SLR, but uses a translucent fixed mirror, and when shooting, part of the light is reflected to the viewfinder CCD, and the image is generated to the EVF electronic viewfinder for framing, and the other part is projected to the CMOS for imaging, because the mirror does not move, so the continuous shooting speed is very fast, but because it is a translucent filter, the light received by the CMOS is weak, and the high light quality performance is very poor. It belongs to the EVF electronic viewfinder viewfinder, and the display effect is not as good as the optical viewfinder.

Mirrorless mirrorless only retains the large-size CCD of the SLR and the mount of the interchangeable lens, so the image quality and function are guaranteed, but because the focusing and framing methods are the same as those of the DC, it is both intellectual and amateur and home-like. Mirrorless is the screen framing.

SLR camera, commonly known as single-lens reflex camera, has a pentaprism inside, the scene is reflected on the reflector through the lens, and then reflected on the pentaprism by the reflector, and then the scene is refracted to the eyepiece by the pentaprism, and the object seen by the eyepiece is the same as the object given by the lens.

The single electric scene is reflected on the reflector through the lens, and then the scene is given by the reflector and given to the electronic viewfinder, that is, there is a small electronic screen in the eyepiece, and the scene in the eyepiece is given through the small electronic screen.

The mirrorless is a card machine with an interchangeable lens, the body is small and similar to a card machine, and the screen is used to frame directly, but it can be a replaceable lens like a SLR...

What is the difference between a DSLR, digital, mirrorless and single camera? Look at this and you'll see it all.

A DSLR camera is a camera that can change the lens and further expand the function, and now the SLR is very cheap, but the later lens investment is larger. And it is not convenient to carry.

It is not recommended for the landlord to use the mirror, the mirrorless is a new product at present, the market is not very mature, and the power consumption is relatively large, and the accessories resources are also very lacking, although it is very small, but it is not very convenient to travel. In comparison, it is still Canon, Nikon's SLR is better, after all, the accessories resources of the SLR are much richer, it is easier to upgrade, the power consumption is relatively small, and the cost performance is very high

The difference between no board and a board is primary, and everything else is secondary.

1 Digital cameras include all cameras that have been imaged in digital form, including general DC SLR and mirrorless cameras

2 DSLR cameras are currently the most comprehensive features among digital machines. Due to its structural characteristics and working principle, the SLR camera has a fast start, fast focus, fast continuous shooting, high-grade image quality and full manual function, which is used by general professional photographers, and now many photography enthusiasts also use SLR, the main reason is that its image quality is significantly higher than that of the general DC and single battery.

3 single electric and mirrorless, this is something that has risen in the past two years, the advocate is the M4 3 alliance of Olingbass and Panasonic, the purpose of development is to find a balance between the general DC and the SLR, the general DC is simple in operation, easy to use, easy to carry, but the image quality and quality of the fuselage are obviously inferior to the SLR, and the single anyway is the opposite. Therefore, Olympus and Panasonic intend to find a balance between the two, using small technologies to achieve good image quality.

Different from the SLR, the main thing of the single electric (mirrorless) is to cancel the mirror structure inside the SLR camera and the Wuling mirror viewfinder, which is the way of working has changed, greatly reducing the flange distance, and realizing the lightweight of the camera. At the same time, the single electric (mirrorless) inherits the same size sensor as the SLR camera, and the corresponding lens can also be replaced, so the machine has flexibility. At present, the mainstream mirrorless cameras are:

Olympus' PEL-2 and EP-2, Panasonic's GF-2, and last year's hot Sony NEX-5

Single-electric and mirrorless are different, Sony developed a revolutionary product last year, the product did not reduce the flange distance, using the same technical specifications as the previous Minolta mount, but made changes in the reflector and Wuling lens, from a 45 ° movable reflector, changed to a fixed reflector of about 60 °, canceled the Wuling lens and optical viewfinder, and used an electronic viewfinder, such a change, greatly improved the camera's focusing speed and continuous shooting speed, and can continue to record and focus without interruption, It also makes flexible use of the lens group of the Sony mount. This is a new way of thinking, and there are currently only two types of single cameras: the Sony 33 and the 55.

Hehehe, it's all hand-beaten......Let's explain it clearly.

The mirrorless word in digital cameras is a new word invented by Sony.

It is the only camera that does not have a reflector inside the lens that can change the lens, such as the nex5.

Then Panasonic's GF2 and Samsung's NX100 should all be considered this kind of camera.

Because of the elimination of the reflector design, the camera is much thinner. The flange distance is also much shorter, so that any lens can be looped with an adapter later.

DSLR naturally refers to a single-lens reflex camera. It's the kind of big, bulky camera you see.

This kind of camera has a reflector inside, which is a reflector, which is used to reflect the scenery from the lens to the viewfinder and see it with the eye. Then press the shutter at the same time, the reflector quickly flips, instant image, very fast, play the role of seeing, shooting.

As for the bill, I haven't heard of this statement, I only thought of motorcycles, if there is, it also belongs to the ranks of microsheets.

As for the suitable people, naturally, micro-mirrorless and the public, after all, it is beautiful and lightweight, but the imaging quality is still different from the SLR.

This is why large and heavy DSLR cameras are still used by professionals.

After all, professional SLR, imaging quality, and all aspects are still better than mirrorless.

Digital cameras: At present, the mainstream cameras on the market are all digital imaging;

SLR: The abbreviation of single-lens mount interchangeable lens mirror viewfinder camera;

Single-lens: the abbreviation of single-lens bayonet interchangeable lens electronic viewfinder camera;

Mirrorless: Sony's own name is a slightly smaller single battery.

Hello! Actually,"Mirrorless"Camera with"Monoelectric"Cameras are one thing. On miniature, small, interchangeable lens digital cameras, Sony uses the term "mirrorless camera".

Sony positioned the "mirrorless" camera as a crossover product between a DSLR camera and a card machine, and its main structural feature is the absence of mirrors and prisms. "Mirrorless" is a trademark of Sony Corporation.

"Mirrorless" is a new type of word, this word is created by Sony specifically for the Chinese market, mirrorless is given two meanings: micro and small, SLR corresponding image quality. In other words, the term refers to the "compact size" and "DSLR-like image quality" of this camera.

In June 2010, Sony launched the first "mirrorless" camera, the NEX-5C.

Before Sony launched the "mirrorless" camera, consumer electronics giants such as Olympus, Panasonic, and Samsung had launched mirrorless products that use an electronic viewfinder and can change lenses like a DSLR, and called them "single cameras".

The difference is that one has a reflector and one does not, and the full name is mirrorless'Single-powered.
