Novice photographer: micro-single or SLR?

First, SLR: The full name of SLR camera is called "single lens reflex viewfinder camera". The main feature of SLR camera is that there is a reflector inside the fuselage. Simply put, when taking a view, the light enters the lens, refracts into the viewfinder through the pentaprism, and is finally seen by the human eye.

Advantages: comfortable framing, "what you see is what you get".

Disadvantages: the sound cannot be eliminated when shooting, and the focusing speed is slow when taking pictures in real time.

Second, the micro-camera: the micro-camera refers to a micro-camera, which is neither a SLR nor a card machine. It can replace a single lens, but it is smaller and lighter than a SLR, more flexible than a card machine, and has better photographing effect. It can be said that it is a camera product that combines many advantages of SLR and card machine.

Advantages: small size, light weight and easy to carry.

Disadvantages: slow focus; The compact body is top-heavy when accommodating a large telephoto lens.

Third, distinguish between SLR and micro-single according to naming.

For digital SLR cameras ending in D, such as 90D, 700D and 6D2 SLR cameras, the fewer digits, the higher the positioning.

The smaller the numbers of professional micro-sheets starting with R, such as R5 and R6, the higher the positioning.

An introductory micro-sheet starting with M, such as M50 and M200, is mainly for photographers, novice Xiaobai and family records for daily use.

Fourth, how to choose SLR or micro-single?

Choose SLR or micro-order according to demand:

If you shoot video or vlog: micro-single.

Novice Xiaobai, take a picture every day: micro-single.

Have a higher pursuit of focusing: micro-single

Pursuing the future development trend: micro-single

Special environment (cold weather) use: SLR.

Professional photography, pursuing more complex control: SLR

Basically only taking pictures, pursuing cost performance: SLR

Adequate budget, no upper limit: buy the best micro-orders.

To put it simply: novice Xiaobai suggested buying a micro-order. If you want to engage in the professional photography industry in the future and pursue higher requirements, it is recommended to buy a SLR.

To sum up: SLR is suitable for people with a certain foundation.

Advantages: better endurance, a large number of lens groups, and the shutter sound of SLR is also loved by many people;

Disadvantages: large volume and high operation difficulty.

Advantages of micro-single: small size, strong convenience and simple operation;

Disadvantages: small size but insufficient endurance, and a small number of lens groups, suitable for novices.

At present, the price of micro-orders is generally higher than that of SLR. If the budget is not much, it is recommended to enter SLR, but the performance of micro-single with low budget is not as good as SLR.
