Now you know the main differences between different kind of cameras, you should think about what you would like to use your camera for. If you like to travel, make some snapshots and nothing more, go for a compact camera. Don’t spend too much money on functions you’ll never use. When you’d like to have more control over your images and like to develop more into photography, a DSLR or mirrorless camera would be my pick. Which one you prefer is up to you. In general, DSLRs have great durability (they are mostly stronger build than mirrorless cameras), last longer on a full battery charge and you have better grip. Mirrorless cameras on the other hand are lighter and more compact, so if you don’t like to carry around much weight, a mirrorless camera would be a good choice. One advantage of DSLRs over mirrorless cameras, especially on the higher end models, is weather proofing which I haven’t seen on any mirrorless camera yet. If you are like me and find yourself outdoors in different kinds of weather, this is something you may like to keep in mind.<\/span> Because of limitations of the compact cameras, the more this series progresses, the more it will be focussed on DSLR and mirrorless cameras.<\/p>“}}]}]}]},{“name”:”Post – Lower panels”,”type”:”section”,”props”:{“style”:”default”,”width”:”default”,”vertical_align”:”middle”,”title_position”:”top-left”,”title_rotation”:”left”,”title_breakpoint”:”xl”,”image_position”:”center-center”},”children”:[{“name”:””,”type”:”row”,”props”:{“fixed_width”:”large”,”breakpoint”:”m”,”layout”:”,,”,”vertical_align”:false,”match”:true},”children”:[{“name”:””,”type”:”column”,”props”:{“widths”:[“”],”image_position”:”center-center”},”children”:[{“name”:””,”type”:”panel”,”props”:{“link_text”:”Read more”,”title_element”:”h3″,”meta_style”:”meta”,”meta_align”:”bottom”,”icon_ratio”:”2″,”image_align”:”top”,”image_grid_width”:”1-2″,”image_breakpoint”:”m”,”link_style”:”default”,”margin”:”default”,”title”:”Key principles”,”content”:”
