Mirrorless cameras, mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras, electronic-viewfinder-interchangeable-lens cameras. We bet you have probably heard these terms being used a lot lately. But despite these terms being bandied around a lot, it has come to our attention that many people - especially the average camera user - still have absolutely no idea what a mirrorless system camera is or what it’s capable of. And no wonder: the camera industry itself can’t even decide on a standardized name! In layman's parlance, mirrorless cameras were introduced to fill the gap between digital compact cameras and DSLRs, where there are those who want the performance of a DSLR (especially in terms of image quality), but don’t wish to deal with the bulk and complicated controls. |

While still a relatively new product category (about four years old), mirrorless cameras have recently gained a lot of traction especially in the last couple of years, due to the entry of more big-name players and the increased number of models. Currently, almost all major camera manufacturers have a mirror system in their camera lineup, alongside their compact and DSLR offerings. So if you’re looking to upgrade from your digital compact camera, or are just interested in finding out more about mirrorless system cameras, do read our Mirrorless Camera Guide Essentials (links on the right). It's bound to answer at least a couple of burning questions you have. |
