Two main types of sensors are used in digital SLRs today: CCD (charge coupled device) and CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) imagers. Although each type of sensor uses different technology to capture images, there’s no inherent quality difference between them. Some vendors, including Sony, Pentax/Samsung, and Nikon, make great dSLRs based on CCDtechnology. (more…)

A DSLR Works Like a Camera
Another reason why digital SLRs have improved performance is that they’re easier to use, so you, as the photographer, can work faster while you shoot.Most point-and-shoot cameras have to be configured for consumers who are more interested in grabbing a quick snapshot than investing some artistry in creating a photograph.

Professional DSLR models
Most professional DSLRs set you back 5 to 8 grand. If you’re selling your work, the camera is well worth the cost. Cameras in this class include the Nikon D2xs, Canon

DSLRs Compared to other Digital Cameras
Fixed-lens cameras
Non-SLR digital cameras generally fall into two types: compact digicams, and SLR-like bridge digital cameras (also known as advanced digital cameras) which offer larger zoom ranges, better optics, and more manual controls. Both types have permanently fixed lenses. While the only defining feature of an SLR is its reflex viewfinder system, extant digital SLR models generally offer the following advantages over fixed-lens cameras of the same generation: (more…)
