The obsession of
photography is sky high. From a profession to a hobby photography is refreshing
and here is a quick comparison between 2 extravagant professional image
capturing devices the DLSR and MILCs
Well photography has gained its position from a
profession to a hobby, habit, time-pass. With cameras available on cell-phones,
tablets and various mobile devices every person carries a camera along with
him. Whether it is your loved ones, a beautiful landscape or anything unique
worth capturing or sharing is just a click away.
But there are people who instead of using these
mobile cams use professional cameras as they are more sensitive about the
images they capture. Such cameras are known as DSLRs and the latest MILCs.
DSLR
The DSLR Cameras got its root from SLR cameras; SLR
(single lens reflex) cameras are analog cameras where two light paths are
present one between lens and target and other between target and viewfinder.
These two different paths result in a picture slightly different from what you
saw on viewfinder. DSLR or the Digital
version of SLR is basically an SLR that saves images in a memory card instead
of film reel. It shares a lot of the features of the SLR along with a few more
improvements that makes it a lot more superior.
We all have seen DSLRs in hands
of professionals and some hobbyists. But now the market is introduced with
another image capturing device. Some of the examples are Canon Eos 1DX DSLR,
Nikon D4, Nikon D 7000 etc.
MILC
Compact System
Camera (CSC), Mirrorless System Camera (MSC), Digital
Single Lens Mirrorless (DSLM), Digital Interchangeable-Lens
System camera, and finally Electronic Viewfinder
with Interchangeable Lens (EVIL);
are the terms used to define this new advanced species of cameras. These have a
LED screen behind them for viewing.
Examples are Nikon 1 J1,J2;
Canon EOS M etc.
The question is what these are
exactly, how they are different from DSLRs and which of the two is better?
THE
COMPARISON
Well where DSLRs excellent
quality cameras come along with a lot of lenses, these tuff as tank cameras
gives great quality images whereas what adds to MILCs is their compact size and
light weight although similar to DSLRs they are also versatile with changing
lenses and all.
The major difference is their
working: -
Well in a DSLR, the image comes
from the lens to the viewfinder through a mirror which we are able to see
through our eye. In this sensors are used which are placed right in front of
the lens which captures the image and hence there is no difference between the
image seen and the captured image.(like it was in SLR)
The MILCs working is a bit
different which takes the advantage of miniaturization of LED display. The
light is incident on the lens and is shot directly onto the sensor which than
enhances and projects it on the screen at the back of camera.
MILCs have a disadvantage of
not able to provide god quality images in low light whereas DSLRs can.
CONCLUSION
It is the trend, the look and
the photographers personal choice that
You need good quality pictures
(Both DSLRs and MICs)
You want compact size (MICs)
You want to shoot dim light
images (DSLRs)
You want to look like a
professional photographer (DSLRs)
You like latest advanced
features (MICs)
At last it's you who has to
answer
what makes you click ?
