The decision you face when buying a Canon DSLR vs a mirrorless camera can be tricky. They both take the same pictures, but they use very different designs. Some say that the DSLR is dead and that mirrorless cameras are the future, but Canon continues to release new DSLRs, so it’s clear they don’t think so. In late 2019 Canon launched the EOS 90D, for example.
This is a DSLR which can do anything Canon’s mirrorless cameras can, right down to Live View autofocus and video capabilities. On top of that the flagship EOS camera for professionals – the imminent EOS-1D X Mark III – is a DSLR, not a mirrorless camera.
The fact is, both camera designs have pros and cons, so we will explain what the differences are, whether they are likely to matter to you, and which type of camera might be best for what you want to photograph. There are lots of myths about DSLRs vs mirrorless cameras that need busting, particularly the idea that mirrorless cameras are somehow intrinsically better. In reality, it’s not always about what these different types of camera can do, as much as the type you prefer to use.
So, over the next ten pages we’ll take a look at key areas of the technology and design to try and answer that DSLR vs mirrorless question once and for all…
