Mini Research Proj: Mirrorless Camera

MIRRORLESS CAMERAS

Mirrorless cameras are interchangeable lens cameras that don't have the mirror and optical viewfinder that a DSLR has. Most mirrorless cameras are built to have the same sensors as DSLRs. Beisdes the  fact that the viewfinder is through-the-lense, the only differnence between DSLRs and mirrorless cameras is that DSLRs have a seperate autofocus, and mirrorless cameras have a main sensor just for focus. There is not a large difference between DSLRs and mirrorless cameras, they are pretty similar. 

PROS
1. Smaller
2. Lighter
3.  Easy to focus and clear auto focus
4. Good for traveling

CONS
1. Less room for some functions
2. Battery doesn't last as long as a DSLR.
3. Sometimes innaccurate in limited lighting
4. They don't have a viewfinder



MY OPINION.

I personally think you should purchase mirrorless cameras for next year. I believe this because they are good for traveling, and we have to do a lot of that during this class. You own a few good DSLR cameras, so kids could still get the chance to use these, yet they could also explore the possibilities of mirrorless cameras. They would have better focus, and really there are not many differences so I think we should get mirrorless for a little change in pace.
