What are some mind blowing new cameras that most people don't know about?

Cameras without a mirror, yes you read that right and many people are unaware of this technology so here is an insight.

What is a mirrorless camera?

The mirror in a DSLR reflects the light up to the optical viewfinder. In a mirrorless camera, there is no optical viewfinder, because as the name suggests it has no reflex mirror, Instead, the imaging sensor is exposed to light at all times.

Better than a DSLR?

If we already had DSLR cameras, what was the point of removing the mirror and creating a new category of camera?

The main reason is simply size. Without the beefy mirror box taking up space inside the camera body, mirrorless cameras can be made much smaller than their DSLR counterparts. Originally popular with beginners and casual photographers, this design has now grown on professionals, as well. We’ll get into additional advantages below.

1: Design

One of the neat things about mirrorless interchangeable-lens cameras is that the distance between the lens mount and sensor is much smaller than on a DSLR. This makes it possible to attach a wide variety of lenses from DSLR manufacturers using various adapters.

2: Sensors

Despite the much smaller form factor compared to DSLR cameras, mirrorless cameras can have the same size sensors inside. Just as Canon and Nikon offer full-frame and crop sensors in their DSLR cameras, Sony makes both full-frame and crop sensor mirrorless cameras.

3: Accessories

Although mirrorless cameras are much newer than their DSLR counterparts, there is no shortage of accessories and add-ons. Attachment like external flashes, and high-end models offer support for vertical battery grips — just like many DSLRs — which can improve ergonomics and extend battery life are all available.

4: Autofocus

The autofocus capabilities of mirrorless cameras vary greatly depending on the manufacturer and the lenses being used with the camera. For this reason, it’s difficult to say whether or not mirrorless cameras have an advantage over DSLRs in this department.

5: Video Capturing

However, when it comes to video, mirrorless cameras have a pretty clear win. In video mode, even a DSLR must be set to live view, using the rear LCD screen rather than the optical viewfinder. Sony and Panasonic, tend to be much more proactive about building in high-end video features to their cameras. Canon and Nikon have done little to compete.

6: Battery Life

Due to the constant use of the sensor and a live view LCD, mirrorless cameras burn through batteries much faster than DSLRs. Improvements in efficiency may help this in the future, but for now, the all-day battery life of many DSLRs remains a big advantage.

Wrapping up the review i would like to say that both the cameras have both advantages and disadvantages it is according to the need that people need to buy mirror or mirrorless cameras.

for example if we are not in a dire need of battery and size say family use, we should go for mirrorless, and photographers who have to sit throughout and record in forests etc, they should go for DSLRs.
