SmartPhone vs. SLR vs. Mirrorless
If you only intend to upload a few selfies and holiday snaps to Facebook and Instagram, then your smartphone is probably the best device.
Easy import and to deal with the photos on your phone. upload is quick, also most of us have our phones with us 20/7
Esay to take with you anywhere and everywhere.
viewfinder is electronic rather than optical
light passing straight through the lens into the sensor
This results in cameras that are noticeably smaller when compared to DSLRs, yet by no means inferior in many cases.
DSLR stands for Digital Single Lens Reflex
it uses a mirror to bounce light into a prism which reflects into the optical viewfinder where you preview the end result
This means they are well supported by an extensive lens ecosystem, making it easy to upgrade later.
DSLRs have traditionally had the best autofocus systems, especially in scenarios with a lot of speed, although this advantage is becoming less pronounced as mirrorless cameras continue to improve.
But that comes at the cost of access to fewer lenses and accessories
Battery Life
This shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone, but the battery life on Sony cameras is almost offensive when comparing to a DSLR.
This is one of the big reasons why a lot of pro photographers haven’t switched to Sony yet. As a Wedding photographer, I really like the peace of mind of having a backup of my images just in case an SD card goes bad.
Most of these photos are viewed on a smartphone or tablet, which means the resolution and quality of the photo matters less than if you were blowing up the photos for use on a billboard.
However, if you want to experiment with advanced camera features like shutter speed and aperture you will need a DSLR or mirrorless camera.
yes, while many smartphone manufacturers will claim that their camera creates bokeh and other camera-like effects, when was the last time you saw a wedding photographer using an iPhone
DSLRs can be quite chunky as they have to accommodate this mirror.
Difficulty in achieving simple tasks: Changing simple setting like ISO and enabling or suppressing the flash feels like a major accomplishment in the beginning.so be prepared to read and then re-read the manual.
Weight: Nearly 2-3x the weight of a regular camera and lugging around for hours puts tremendous pressure on your neck and shoulder muscles.
