What is a DSLR camera?

A digital single-lens reflex camera (DSLR) camera is unique in that it’s a digital camera but it has the added benefit of an interchangeable lens. This allows experienced photographers to swap out lenses for different types of shots, such as a telescopic lens for far away shots. It also allows you to see your exact image through the viewfinder, so you know you have the right shot lined up and focused correctly.

What is a megapixel?

Megapixel is the unit of measurement for digital image resolution and is the equivalent of 1 million pixels per inch. So, an 18-megapixel camera will shoot images with 18 million pixels per inch. The higher the megapixels, the clearer the image, but this also takes up more storage space on your memory card.

What is a mirrorless camera?

A mirrorless camera allows the light to pass through its lens and directly onto its digital sensor instead of reflecting off a mirror first. This is a simpler design than a DSLR but has its advantages, including smaller size, an electronic viewfinder that allows you to change settings and see the results before shooting, superior image stabilization, quiet operation, and higher shooting speeds.
