mirrorless camera

What Is A Mirrorless Camera? Hi and welcome to Episode 56 of the Photography Explained podcast.

I’m Rick, and in each episode I will explain one photographic thing in plain English in less than 10 minutes (ish) without the irrelevant details. What I tell you is based on my lifetime of photographic experience. Not Google. Well there might be the odd thing that I had to look up but mainly this is stuff that I know.

Here is my answer
A mirrorless camera has a sensor that is permanently exposed to light. When taking a photo a shutter covers the sensor, and then opens and closes to expose the image for a time duration set by the shutter speed. The viewfinder on a mirrorless camera is electronic. Mirrorless cameras do not have mirrors or the pentaprism found on DSLR cameras, so are smaller and lighter than DSLRs.

Or put it another way – a mirrorless camera does not have a mirror in it!

I get asked quite often about cameras. People associate camera knowledge with my over 15 years as a professional photographer. On top of that, I test and review cameras quite often. I thought I would share what is most important to me in a camera in today's episode.

"What camera body should I buy?" is one of the most asked question for new wedding pros when they start out and for good reason. There are just so many options and so many opinions! Some people swear mirrorless. Other folks can't leave that Canon glass. Some people just need that Panasonic 60fps 4k. But does it even matter anymore? Aren't they all pretty good? We discuss this hot topic and more nerd stuff on this episode.
