While it is true that DSLR cameras are bulkier than mirrorless cameras, it is also true that they produce beautiful, high-quality images. A DSLR gives you the experience of seeing directly through the lens thanks to its optical mirror viewfinder, and in some cases the battery lasts longer. Today, the Nikon D780 stands out among the best DSLR cameras; its great performance (shooting with both the viewfinder and live view mode), along with a high quality video mode, make this a great option for serious photo lovers; even for some professionals.
Although it’s also a good idea to learn about mirrorless cameras, if you’ve already decided to buy a DSLR, we’ll help you choose with this list of our favorites.
