DSLR stands for digital single-lens reflex and is used for cameras that use mechanical mirror system. In this system the light is directed from lens to an optical viewfinder on the back of the camera. In digital photography, the image is not caught by a film but through a sensor. This device is produced by CMOS technology, which stands for complementary metal oxide semiconductor, with an active pixel sensor that transform light into digital signals and the photos look lively with the resolution of 14-bit.
One of the most popular DSLR cameras is the Nikon D5100. This device is not an entry level model, but a mid-range digital camera: it offers better features then the Nikon D3100 like higher resolution and it costs less then the Nikon D70. The Nikon D5100 camera sometimes is bundled with 18-55mm VR lens: this optic is a good lens for who want to learn digital photography.
The Canon EOS 60D is a camera designed squarely for the mid-range photographer. If you now know what you’re doing and can take decent photos but don’t need high-end professional features, this camera is perfect. Whether you like to document your travels, weekends, good times or just landscapes, the EOS 60D can do it all. The launch of this camera was surrounded by much debate about it’s features, but over time it has proven to be a winner.
