What's the difference between a micro camera and a general digital camera?

1 The microplate has no reflector. 2. The microchip has good lens compatibility.

The microplate has no reflector.

The biggest difference between micro-single and SLR is the mirror. The microchip has no reflector. The reason why the SLR has an inverted character is because there is a reflector inside the SLR. The purpose of the mirror is to reflect the light passing through the lens. Part of the reflected light is reflected to the human eye for framing, that is, the image we see, and the other part is reflected to the phase focusing unit for focusing.

Micro-single cancels the reflector, which means that without light reflection, we can't see the scenery directly through the lens. The solution is to open another observation window, or use digital DC and other observation modes to observe through the LCD screen.

In addition, there is no phase focusing unit in the micro-single, so the focusing performance of the micro-single is different from that of the SLR. The focusing mode of micro-single is not phase focusing, but contrast focusing, and the focusing speed will be slower than phase focusing, but with progress, the focusing speed has been greatly improved now.

There are also differences in control between micro-single and SLR. The handling of the SLR is very powerful, because there are many buttons on the body of the SLR, in addition to two dials. Because the body of the micro-single has become smaller, it is impossible to place more buttons, so the control of the micro-single may be a little different. However, the micro-menu operation is very convenient for people who are used to the card machine. Basically, two hands are enough to shoot.

Micro single lens has good compatibility.

Compared with single lens, micro single lens has better compatibility than SLR. The strength of the micro-single is that because the flange distance becomes smaller, a lot of old lenses can be reborn, just adding an adapter ring.

For example, the flange distance of Sony's NEX series is 18mm, and the flange distance of Pentax lens is 45.5 mm As long as an adapter ring with a thickness of 27.5mm is installed in front of the fuselage, Pentax lens can be used. Pentax's manual pan-tilt is very famous, so the appearance of micro-single saves a lot of old shots.

The reason why the micro-single sells well lies in its powerful switching performance, while the SLR is basically unable to install the switching ring because of the large flange distance. In addition, micro-single has a natural monopoly advantage in portability. Micro-single is much lighter and smaller than SLR, and can be carried around in your pocket, but SLR can only be carried around.

Some single cells look very similar to SLR, and there is no difference. So how should we distinguish between micro-single and SLR?

First look at the appearance. If the size is small and the lens is large, there is a bayonet lock button next to the lens barrel on the front of the fuselage, and there is no small eyepiece above the screen on the back of the fuselage, which is single electricity. Second, some microchips also have small eyepieces. You can pick them up and have a look at the small eyepieces at the back. If the lens cover is removed and the machine is turned off, the small eyepiece is dark, which is a single electricity.
