Introduction
What does SLR camera stand for?
Single-lens Reflex Camera
Which camera is the smallest ?(size & weight)
Mirrorless Camera
Do mirrorless cameras use in-body image stabilization (IBIS)?
Yes
What does HDR processing stand for?
High Dynamic Range Processing
Which camera is more portable?
Mirrorless camera
Who invented the DSLR camera?
Steve Sasson
What autofocus system do DSLR cameras & Mirrorless cameras commonly utilize?
DSLR: Phase-detection Autofocus
Mirrorless: Contrast-detection Autofocus
What is the advantage of having an electronic viewfinder in mirrorless cameras?
makes it easier to get a perfect shot in less-than-ideal conditions
What new smartphone camera technologies are coming in the future?
AI technology (filters and low light conditions). HDR processing. Multi-rear camera systems
Which camera lasts longer without charging?
DSLR cameras last longer due to not needing as much energy to display digitally
Which camera doesn't use a mirror in its camera body?
Mirrorless Camera
Why do mirrorless cameras have shorter battery life?
Due to the electronic viewfinder and constant sensor operation
What is the advantage of having no mirror in mirrorless cameras?
lighter allowing them to be more portable especially when shooting videos outside. Can shoot faster as it allows light to directly reach the image.
What new image sensor technologies are coming in the future?
Hybrid image sensors. Imaging over a larger area whilst increasing temporal resolution and dynamic rang. Miniaturization of sensors
In terms of image and video quality, which camera is better?
They are the same, comparable in every regard
What is the difference between SLR and DSLR cameras?
DSLR cameras are emerged with the integration of digital sensors
What is the difference between SLR's & DSLR's optical system?
DSLR cameras incorporate a digital sensor instead of lens
What do the latest mirrorless cameras now offer?
AI-powered features like automated framing, complex object recognition and real-time tracking
How does HDR processing improve the quality of images?
By balancing the the dark and bright areas of an image for an improved dynamic range.
Which camera has a better viewfinder?
Mirrorless cameras have a better viewfinder, due to it being live view and seeing exactly what the lens of the camera sees
Which camera represents a more recent innovation?
Mirrorless Camera
Mirrorless cameras use IBIS stabilization while DSLR cameras use lens based stabilization, what is the difference between both stabilizations?
In-body image stabilization (IBIS) stabilizes the sensor within the camera body, reducing camera shake for all lenses used. Lens-based stabilization stabilizes the optical elements inside the lens, meaning stabilization effectiveness can vary depending on the lens used.
Why are mirrorless cameras considered the future of photography?
can shoot faster (shooting up to 40 frames per second), uses silent electronic shutters, good for shooting in quiet spaces like art galleries, Light goes straight to the image sensor through the lens, making autofocus faster and more precise,
Why is AI technology considered a powerful smartphone camera technology in photography?
Ai-powered filters and effects: Allows users to apply complex artistic styles to their photos, and for the resulting images to appear stylistically relevant
Which camera is getting more updates (new cameras/technologies, lens, etc)
Mirrorless cameras are getting a lot more, allowing them to catch up to DSLR's when in the past they could not compete due to the amount of different lens and accessories that DSLR's could use
