Frequently asked questions about DSLR Cameras
Navigating the intricacies of DSLR cameras can be complex, especially for those new to this technology. To help, we've collated responses to common questions about Canon's DSLR range. This essential resource, perfect for both novice users and seasoned photographers, aims to clarify your understanding of DSLR technology and enhance your photography journey.
  • What is a DSLR Camera?

    A DSLR (Digital Single-Lens Reflex), is a type of camera that uses a complex mechanical mirror system to redirect light coming through the lens. For example, when you are looking through the viewfinder to frame your shot, the light is bounced up in to the viewfinder – as well as on to the Exposure and Auto-focus sensors. For the split second when you press the shutter button, the mirror swings out of the way to direct light on to the imaging sensor.
  • Can you compare Mirrorless and DSLR Cameras?

    A DSLR camera uses a mirror and optical viewfinder (OVF) to allow photographers to frame and compose their shots through the camera’s lens seeing it directly as it is. Whereas Mirrorless camera, as the name suggests do not have a mirror mechanism and rely on an electronic viewfinder (EVF) to provide a digital preview. This absence of a mirror often contributes to a more compact and lightweight design.

  • Which lenses can I use with DSLR Cameras?

  • Are phone cameras better than DSLR?

    DSLRs have a much larger sensor size than a phone camera. This captures more light and results in better image quality, especially in low light conditions. This leads to less noise and better dynamic range in DSLR photos. DSLRs also offer true optical zoom capabilities, allowing you to zoom on distant subjects without sacrificing image quality, whereas phone cameras rely on digital zoom.
  • Can you shoot video with a DSLR Camera?

    Yes, you can shoot video with a DSLR offering high quality Full HD or 4K resolution depending on the camera model.
