Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR)

DLSR stands for Digital Single Lens Reflex or Digital SLR and are more complex than your everyday point and shoot digital camera. DSLRs take more quality pictures than regular cameras and have more options and features that you use, such as the number of pictures you can take in a small amount of time and the different lenses you can use. Also these cameras have more manual settings that you can change resulting in the ability to take different photographs.

Can you use your canon Eos slr lens on a canon dslr?

The short answer is "Yes." The long answer is: All Canon EOS cameras use Canon EF (electro-focus) lenses. They can also use independently made lenses with EF type camera mounts. All Canon DSLR (digital single lens reflex) cameras can use all Canon EF (or independent manufacturer equivalent) lenses made for film or digital cameras. Most Canon DSLR's have an APS-C sensor that measures 22.2 x 14.8mm. (This is smaller than the 36 x 24mm image size on 35mm film.) In 2003, Canon introduced EF-S lenses that were optimized for the APS-C sensor size. The EF-S lenses will only fit on Canon 20D, 30D, 40D, and 50D cameras (as of 2008) and all Canon Digital Rebel cameras.

Sony purhcased the Minolta digital camera division, so all Sony Alpha DSLRs will use Minolta lenses.

What is the difference between point and shoot camera and DSLR camera?

A single lens reflex (SLR) is a camera that uses the same set of lenses to both focus the image on the CCD (digital) and enable the photographer to frame the picture. That is to say, when you look through the viewfinder of a DSLR you are looking directly at the object through the main lens. You are not looking at the digitally re-created picture of the object or through some other lens that is off-center of the main lens.

A point-and-shoot camera will have some other mechanism for framing the picture.

How do you focus a digital SLR camera?

Start by powering on the camera and ensuring you have enough light around.

Next, adjust the image mode to different modes such as Portrait, Landscape, Closeup or Sports depending on what you need.

Now, adjust the aperture to decide the amount of light to reach. The aperture settings are marked by the letter F and a series of numbers. The smaller the 'F' can be the wider the aperture is. The larger the "F" number is the more focus you will have.

Finally, check the shutter speed. In most cases, the shutter speed can change when the aperture is adjusted. Faster speeds give more precise and sharper action shots.

Finally, its time to capture the photo.

Is a Canon AE-1 lens compatible with the Canon digital SLR EF lens mount?

The AE-1 lenses have Canon's FD breech-lock lens mount. They are not compatible with Canon's later EF lens mount.

It may be possible to find an adapter, but performance would be lost, and the lens will not have the features of an EF lens. Best to save your money and get a dedicated lens, either Canon or Sigma.

Who invented the Digital Single Lens Reflex Camera?

Single-lens reflex cameras were first developed for large film sizes like l20 AND 4x5. tThe Famed firm of Graflex got the ball(or bellows) rolling. the Graflex(not the speed graphic ) introduced the graphic reflex camera in the early l900"s. The Germans and also the Bnritish picked up on the design. ealry slrs were bulky due to the hoysing for the hood and reflex mirror-some siad the old graflexes resmebled a scale model of a marine grain elevator when(Up0) withthe advent of 35MM filjm it was only amatter of time before a 35Mm Reflex became possible then popular. it is believed the Japanese Pentax with the pentaprism(five elements) solved theeye-level slr task )-there wee waist level s l r camera in 35 inthe thirties such as the German Exakta. The Pentax derives its name form penta meaing five (like Pentagon) and the pentaprism device whichy permiots eye-level SLR VIEWING. cAMNE OUT AFTER wAR 2.

This is a puzzler. The first commercially successful SLRs were probably the VP Exactas, which, by 1936 had evolved into the Kine Exacta, the world's first 35mm SLR.

The first instant return mirror was in the Gamma Duflex of 1943, but there was a war on and the system was unreliable, which is why the 1953 Asahiflex II (Pentax ancestor) is generally accepted as the first.

The 1948 Contax S (Made by the company that became Praktica) was the first SLR with a pentaprism, it also introduced the 42mm, 'Pentax screw.'

By the mid '50s, retrofocus design was perfected, enabling SLRs to accept wideangle lenses, and all of these innovations allowed the 35mm SLR to displace the rangefinder as the professionals' choice.

What is digital single reflex lens?

A Digital Single Reflex Lens or DSLR is a type of camera which uses a series of mirrors inside the camera, so that when you look inside the viewfinder of a DSLR, then you will see almost precisely what the camera sensor sees, accurate to a few thousandths of a millimetre. This construction of the mirrors makes the camera more expensive to make, and most cameras simply use the easier and cheaper method, digital viewfinders, which only work when the camera is turned on, whereas on a DSLR, you can look through it anytime (as long as the lens cap is off!)
