Not sure what the difference is between DSLRs and mirrorless cameras? Never mind. Canon has you covered with the new R10.
Canon EOS R10 Final Review
Every time a new technology hits the camera world, things get expensive for a while. Autofocus, digital, and now mirrorless, direct-view cameras. And every time, Canon comes out a few years later with a surprisingly capable and affordable ($979 body-only) model that’s a hit. The latest of these is the R10, a 24-megapixel mirrorless camera that does everything you’d expect it to.
“The Canon R10 is important to Canon’s future because, like the EOS Rebel series, it allows the company to offer a high-quality product at a lower entry point,” indie filmmaker Braidon Thorn told Lifewire via email. “Canon’s R10 is great news for hobbyists, content creators, and student filmmakers who want to try out mirrorless cameras without breaking the bank.”
The difference between a DSLR and a mirrorless camera is small: there is no mirror, but it makes a huge difference to everything. The SLR format uses a mirror in the body to reflect the image from the lens up into the viewfinder. At the moment of exposure, the mirror flips up and out of the way of the sensor.
