SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex. It means that the lens is removable and interchangeable. It also means that you're getting better picture quality as well as a faster shutter speed. Typically with an SLR there is a larger image sensor inside the camera that doesn't compress the photo as much as a simple point and shoot camera would.

∙ 11y agoA single-lens reflex (SLR) camera is a camera that typically uses a mirror and prism system (hence "reflex", from the mirror's reflection) that permits the photographer to view through the lens and see exactly what will be captured, contrary to viewfinder cameras where the image could be significantly different from what will be captured.

In an SLR camera, light enters the lens and is reflected upwards into the viewfinder assembly by a mirror. When the operator looks through the viewfinder, he or she adjusts the lens in order to properly take the shot.
