The difference between camera SLR and micro-single

The difference between micro-single and SLR

What is the difference between micro-single and SLR? The difference between micro-single and SLR is not only the difference of framing mode, but also the difference of structure, performance, advantages and disadvantages between micro-single and SLR. Let me give you a brief comparison and introduction.

The essential job of a camera is to take pictures, and the goal of taking pictures is naturally to get better and better picture quality. But to get better image quality, it is often at the expense of the size and portability of the camera. When the camera appears in family, travel, life records and other occasions, portability is particularly important. The appearance of micro-single is the middle way to try to balance portability and imaging quality.

The difference between micro-single and SLR

What is a SLR?

The full name of SLR is "single lens reflex camera" (referred to as SLR camera), also known as SLR camera. It is a camera that uses a lens and reflects light through this lens. The so-called "single lens" means that the photographic exposure light path and the framing light path * * * use one lens, unlike the paraxial camera or the double-reflex camera, the framing light path has an independent lens. "Reflection" means that a plane mirror in the camera separates the two light paths: when the mirror falls during framing, it reflects the light of the lens to the pentaprism and then to the framing window; When shooting, lift the mirror quickly, and the light can shine on the photosensitive element CMOS.

SLR is not a product of the digital age. SLR cameras existed as early as the film age. With the digitalization of photo carrier, SLR has also entered the digital age. Now we usually refer to SLR digital cameras.

In the internal structure of SLR, there is a mirror and a pentaprism for various reflections of light. These mirrors and pentaprism (or pentaprism) which send external light into the viewfinder through physical reflection become the main components of SLR cameras, and it is also the most significant difference between micro-single and SLR.

Through the form of specular reflection, people can finally observe the objects in the camera viewfinder, which is the so-called optical viewfinder. Whether there is an optical viewfinder or not can also be considered as the biggest difference between SLR and other consumer portable digital cameras.

What is a micro-order?

Micro-camera has two meanings: micro-camera, compact, single-lens camera and replaceable single-lens camera. That is to say, this word means that this kind of camera is small in size and its imaging quality is similar to that of SLR, that is, micro-camera with SLR function is called micro-camera.

Although the ordinary card digital camera is fashionable, it is limited by the aperture and lens size, and there are always some beautiful scenery that can't be taken. Professional SLR cameras are too big. Therefore, combining the advantages of the two, the micro-single camera came into being. Micro-camera is between card-type digital camera and SLR camera, just like netbook appears between notebook computer and smart phone.
