It is not a point and shoot and it can't be classified as a DSLR. What would this be? And is it a good buy? The sale runs out this week BTW.
Added (1). And how much battery life?
V1 = EVIL - Electronic Viewfinder Interchangeable Lens.
J1 = MILC - Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Camera.
The V1 has an electronic viewfinder while the J1 does not.
Or call them "Compact System Cameras"
A mirrorless camera
around 250 shots I believe
It is a VERY expensive compact with interchangeable lens.
It costs the same as a DSLR and as far as I can see it's single advantage is that it is small.
Major downsides vs a DSLR
Has no manual exposure mode (the V1 does)
No hot shoe for external flash
No optical viewfinder - a real problem in bright light and a recipe for camera shake holding ot out from your body at arms length to see the viewfinder.
Very small - how will you get a decent hold to prevent camera shake
No image stabilisation (see 2 points above!)
- How much would you think it would cost to buy one of the dslr camera that are on display?
- How much would a digital camera about 10-12 MP would cost in Brazil?
- What would you do? Would you buy a refurbished lens?
- What camera would be a good camera for photo-shoots?
- How many Images would a 8GB card hold? (24.5MP D3x Camera)?
