What is an SLR camera?
What is special about the
digital SLR cameras and what are the differences between an SLR camera, a digital system camera, a bridge camera or a compact camera? The
Roskothen School of Photography provides insights:
What is special about the digital SLR camera
The The idea of the SLR camera is to use the viewfinder looking through the lens and the lenses depending on the occasion swap. Looking through the lens was not always a matter of course in the early days of cameras. It is therefore a great invention to be able to see exactly what ends up on the sensor (formerly analogue film) through the lens.
Interchangeable lenses
The interchangeability of lenses is one of the advantages of SLR cameras. Which also SLR (Single Lens Reflex) cameras are equipped with a folding mirror. After the shutter is released, but before the picture is taken, this mirror briefly flips upwards for the duration of the shot. The mirror lets light through the lens onto the sensor. During this brief moment, you cannot look through the viewfinder. The image is captured on the sensor. After the picture is taken, the mirror finally folds down (see sketch below).
Apart from the movement of the folding mirror, more happens during the shutter release. For example, a shutter curtain opens behind the mirror. This is responsible for the exposure time. The aperture also closes to a set value. (Details also in the training course)
Modern digital single-lens reflex cameras with interchangeable lenses also have built-in Light meter. The cameras also offer sophisticated Autofocus systems, automatic systems for all possible functions and high sensor quality.
The recording
The Difference One of the differences between SLRs and digital compact cameras or smartphones is that the SLR camera is not held away from the face with outstretched arms when taking a picture. The photographer does not look at the camera's display, but leans their head against the camera. Camera viewfinder an*. After all, taking photos with an SLR camera is completely different from the point of view of shooting technology than with compact cameras or smartphones without a viewfinder.
*Exception Live View - here the mirror is flipped up permanently and the image is shown on the camera display.
What is the difference between a mirrorless system camera and an SLR camera?
Digital System cameras are characterised by a camera body and interchangeable lenses. This means that SLR cameras are also known as system cameras. System cameras without folding mirror (so-called DSLM cameras) also have a viewfinder, but it is usually electronic. In other words, the viewfinder of a mirrorless system camera is a small monitor. This means that the camera does not use mirrors to redirect the view. The viewfinder constantly receives its information from the sensor, which receives light all the time (usually no mirror in front of the sensor).
Bridge cameras haben ein festes Zoomobjektiv, welches nicht getauscht werden kann. Die “Brücke” (daher der englische Name Bridgekamera) zwischen Kompaktkameras und Spiegelreflex hat unter dem Strich im Vergleich Vorteile und Nachteile.
