The smaller the sensor, the smaller the camera is, and the cheaper the camera is.Disclaimer timeAnd I’ll caveat this massively, the smaller the camera sensor is the less professional the camera is – not. I’ll come on to different sensor types in a separate episode of the podcast.Remember this (as Take That once said)One thing I need to remember though, and one thing I want to say is this – buying the best camera in the world doesn’t guarantee you’ll take the best photos in the world. You can buy a great camera and take rubbish photos.You can also, well not with a rubbish camera, but with an average camera, if you know what you’re doing, take great photos. So a great camera doesn’t equal great photos.A cheap camera doesn’t equal rubbish photos.Nearly thereI’m sure there are a few other types of cameras but this is the main ones I wanted to talk about. What cameras do I use?I’ve got a full-frame DSLR that is a Canon 6D. This is the workhorse camera that I use for my architectural photography, construction photography and real estate photography work. It’s quite a basic, no-frills camera. What it does do though is it takes great photos day in and day out, and I love the sensor and the resolution on it.I also have a mirrorless camera which is actually a Micro Four Thirds camera. I’ll come on to that another time. It’s an Olympus, EM5 Mk2. I use that for my travel photography because it’s a lot smaller, more compact and takes great photos.One thing I will say here is that I used an Olympus EM1 which I was kindly loaned by Olympus on a commercial shoot and nobody noticed the difference (to photos taken with my Canon 6D) so you can use a Micro Four Thirds camera commercially. I have proved this by doing it and being paid for the job.Okay, that’s this episode done. This was just a very quick explanation of the different types of cameras. So what’s next on the photography explained called podcast?Which camera should I buy?Having told you about the different types of cameras, I’m going to give you some thoughts about how you might choose your next camera, regardless of what type it is.Thank youThank you for listening.

Typesofcamerasfor film

Do you need a camera?You don’t need a camera if you’re happy with a phone. Absolutely fine. But if you decide that you do need a camera, what kind of camera do you buy?If you go on the internet, you’ll find there are endless numbers of cameras out there. So what I want to do in this episode is quickly go through the different types of cameras and explain what they are, what I use, and what you might want to think about when you’re choosing your next camera.Okay, so what are the different types of cameras?1 DLSRFirst, is the DSLR, which I have helpfully annotated on my notes as DLSR. I am quite concerned – I can’t even spell a basic term like that right?DSLR is a digital single-lens reflex camera.Now what’s a single lens reflex camera I hear you all shouting at your, well whatever device you’re listening to this on. Very good question. And to answer that I need to go back in time to the days when we used to use this thing called film in cameras.Yes, camera film.SLRs were the cameras that tended to be used by professional photographers, there wasn’t a huge number of other choices, to be honest with you.I will go into a lot more detail another time because it is quite important, really. But for the purposes of this episode, I will not go into too much irrelevant detail.An SLR is a camera where through mirrors, prisms, strings, and magic and elastic trickery, you look through the viewfinder, and what you are actually looking at is actually through the middle of the lens. Marvellous science.So SLR is a single lens reflex camera.Film to DigitalNow take the film out of the back, put a sensor in and (in very crude terms) you have a DSLR. Yep, a bit of an oversimplification. But that’s the fundamental difference between the two.So a DSLR (not the DLSR – I’ll never live that one down – I should edit out really but I do not know how to edit audio and I’m not going to learn today).So DSLR was the camera that pros tended to use. And that takes us on to the next type of camera I want to talk about which is a mirrorless camera.What is a mirrorless camera??If you are sitting there scratching your head going, why is a camera called mirrorless, this is why. A DSLR/ SLR has a mirror in it, and a mirrorless camera doesn’t. That’s the difference.If we’re starting again from scratch now, SLR would be called I don’t know what, but a mirrorless camera would be called, erm a camera.So a mirrorless camera doesn’t have a mirror. You don’t look through the lens, you look through the viewfinder. And what you’re looking at is an electronic viewfinder. Obviously, we have to abbreviate that down to a EVF because we can’t summon up the energy to use all the words.Electronic viewfindersSo an EVF (transcript came up with EDF) is an electronic viewfinder. Electronic viewfinders these days are brilliant. They weren’t great to start with. But the technology got to the point now where you virtually cannot tell the difference between the optical viewfinder of a DSLR and the EVF of a mirrorless camera.Other cameras and compact camerasThese are often and wrongly called point-and-shoot cameras. They’re generally the cheaper cameras with smaller sensors. You can still take great photos with them. But yeah, compact cameras – I don’t know a great deal about and to be honest with you – look on the internet for compact cameras and you’ll see why I don’t know a lot about them.There are a lot of them.So what else do we have?Medium format cameras.Now one of the big differentiating factors between different camera systems is the size of the sensor. I’ll come on to this in a minute. A medium format camera has a bigger sensor than a DSLR. A DSLR has a bigger sensor than a cropped sensor camera which has a bigger sensor than a micro four thirds camera.Medium format cameras are more high-end professional cameras.Large format cameraYou can still get large format cameras with a very large film or sensor. The bigger the sensor the more specialist and expensive the camera is.Other camerasThere are also specialist cameras. You can get these incredibly clever 3D cameras that do 3D images, and even 360-degree images. And you can also get cameras that do 360 walkthroughs. I’ve recently looked at a camera called a Matterport. They cost about three grand and are quite complicated to use, but they give you a 3D walkthrough of a building, which is pretty much amazing.So what else do we have apart from these fancy things?Oh, yeah, the phone. Now for you youngsters who might not know this, back in the day of mobile phones, when they first came out, you used a mobile phone to do one of two things. You either phoned people and spoke to them or sent them a text message.To text you had nine keys on your phone (for the numbers 1-9) to select letters to text.These days, the cameras on phones are fantastic. I have an iPhone XS, and it takes fantastic photos. But it’s not replaced my DSLR or mirrorless camera. Okay, so these terms all seem a little bit strange. Let’s not worry about those, let’s concentrate on the main points about the different types of cameras.My summaryIn general terms, the bigger the sensor on the camera, the bigger and better the camera is, and the more expensive it is, and the higher end it is, in very general termsThe smaller the sensor, the smaller the camera is, and the cheaper the camera is.Disclaimer timeAnd I’ll caveat this massively, the smaller the camera sensor is the less professional the camera is – not. I’ll come on to different sensor types in a separate episode of the podcast.Remember this (as Take That once said)One thing I need to remember though, and one thing I want to say is this – buying the best camera in the world doesn’t guarantee you’ll take the best photos in the world.

So a great camera doesn’t equal great photos.A cheap camera doesn’t equal rubbish photos.Nearly thereI’m sure there are a few other types of cameras but this is the main ones I wanted to talk about. What cameras do I use?I’ve got a full-frame DSLR that is a Canon 6D. This is the workhorse camera that I use for my architectural photography, construction photography and real estate photography work. It’s quite a basic, no-frills camera. What it does do though is it takes great photos day in and day out, and I love the sensor and the resolution on it.I also have a mirrorless camera which is actually a Micro Four Thirds camera. I’ll come on to that another time. It’s an Olympus, EM5 Mk2. I use that for my travel photography because it’s a lot smaller, more compact and takes great photos.One thing I will say here is that I used an Olympus EM1 which I was kindly loaned by Olympus on a commercial shoot and nobody noticed the difference (to photos taken with my Canon 6D) so you can use a Micro Four Thirds camera commercially. I have proved this by doing it and being paid for the job.Okay, that’s this episode done. This was just a very quick explanation of the different types of cameras. So what’s next on the photography explained called podcast?Which camera should I buy?Having told you about the different types of cameras, I’m going to give you some thoughts about how you might choose your next camera, regardless of what type it is.Thank youThank you for listening.

So SLR is a single lens reflex camera.Film to DigitalNow take the film out of the back, put a sensor in and (in very crude terms) you have a DSLR. Yep, a bit of an oversimplification. But that’s the fundamental difference between the two.So a DSLR (not the DLSR – I’ll never live that one down – I should edit out really but I do not know how to edit audio and I’m not going to learn today).So DSLR was the camera that pros tended to use. And that takes us on to the next type of camera I want to talk about which is a mirrorless camera.What is a mirrorless camera??If you are sitting there scratching your head going, why is a camera called mirrorless, this is why. A DSLR/ SLR has a mirror in it, and a mirrorless camera doesn’t. That’s the difference.If we’re starting again from scratch now, SLR would be called I don’t know what, but a mirrorless camera would be called, erm a camera.So a mirrorless camera doesn’t have a mirror. You don’t look through the lens, you look through the viewfinder. And what you’re looking at is an electronic viewfinder. Obviously, we have to abbreviate that down to a EVF because we can’t summon up the energy to use all the words.Electronic viewfindersSo an EVF (transcript came up with EDF) is an electronic viewfinder. Electronic viewfinders these days are brilliant. They weren’t great to start with. But the technology got to the point now where you virtually cannot tell the difference between the optical viewfinder of a DSLR and the EVF of a mirrorless camera.Other cameras and compact camerasThese are often and wrongly called point-and-shoot cameras. They’re generally the cheaper cameras with smaller sensors. You can still take great photos with them. But yeah, compact cameras – I don’t know a great deal about and to be honest with you – look on the internet for compact cameras and you’ll see why I don’t know a lot about them.There are a lot of them.So what else do we have?Medium format cameras.Now one of the big differentiating factors between different camera systems is the size of the sensor. I’ll come on to this in a minute. A medium format camera has a bigger sensor than a DSLR. A DSLR has a bigger sensor than a cropped sensor camera which has a bigger sensor than a micro four thirds camera.Medium format cameras are more high-end professional cameras.Large format cameraYou can still get large format cameras with a very large film or sensor. The bigger the sensor the more specialist and expensive the camera is.Other camerasThere are also specialist cameras. You can get these incredibly clever 3D cameras that do 3D images, and even 360-degree images. And you can also get cameras that do 360 walkthroughs. I’ve recently looked at a camera called a Matterport. They cost about three grand and are quite complicated to use, but they give you a 3D walkthrough of a building, which is pretty much amazing.So what else do we have apart from these fancy things?Oh, yeah, the phone. Now for you youngsters who might not know this, back in the day of mobile phones, when they first came out, you used a mobile phone to do one of two things. You either phoned people and spoke to them or sent them a text message.To text you had nine keys on your phone (for the numbers 1-9) to select letters to text.These days, the cameras on phones are fantastic. I have an iPhone XS, and it takes fantastic photos. But it’s not replaced my DSLR or mirrorless camera. Okay, so these terms all seem a little bit strange. Let’s not worry about those, let’s concentrate on the main points about the different types of cameras.My summaryIn general terms, the bigger the sensor on the camera, the bigger and better the camera is, and the more expensive it is, and the higher end it is, in very general termsThe smaller the sensor, the smaller the camera is, and the cheaper the camera is.Disclaimer timeAnd I’ll caveat this massively, the smaller the camera sensor is the less professional the camera is – not. I’ll come on to different sensor types in a separate episode of the podcast.Remember this (as Take That once said)One thing I need to remember though, and one thing I want to say is this – buying the best camera in the world doesn’t guarantee you’ll take the best photos in the world.

Lens design and the patient’s pupil size are key to multifocal success. The Biofinity Multifocal has a center-distance (D) lens, which transitions through an aspheric intermediate to an outer near zone for the dominant eye. A center-near (N) lens which transitions through an aspheric intermediate to a spherical peripheral distance zone, is placed on the nondominant eye7. When compared with monovision, multifocal contact lens correction provides great vision without compromising depth perception, with continuous adaptation over the first 15 days of wear8.

SLRs were the cameras that tended to be used by professional photographers, there wasn’t a huge number of other choices, to be honest with you.I will go into a lot more detail another time because it is quite important, really. But for the purposes of this episode, I will not go into too much irrelevant detail.An SLR is a camera where through mirrors, prisms, strings, and magic and elastic trickery, you look through the viewfinder, and what you are actually looking at is actually through the middle of the lens. Marvellous science.So SLR is a single lens reflex camera.Film to DigitalNow take the film out of the back, put a sensor in and (in very crude terms) you have a DSLR. Yep, a bit of an oversimplification. But that’s the fundamental difference between the two.So a DSLR (not the DLSR – I’ll never live that one down – I should edit out really but I do not know how to edit audio and I’m not going to learn today).So DSLR was the camera that pros tended to use. And that takes us on to the next type of camera I want to talk about which is a mirrorless camera.What is a mirrorless camera??If you are sitting there scratching your head going, why is a camera called mirrorless, this is why. A DSLR/ SLR has a mirror in it, and a mirrorless camera doesn’t. That’s the difference.If we’re starting again from scratch now, SLR would be called I don’t know what, but a mirrorless camera would be called, erm a camera.So a mirrorless camera doesn’t have a mirror. You don’t look through the lens, you look through the viewfinder. And what you’re looking at is an electronic viewfinder. Obviously, we have to abbreviate that down to a EVF because we can’t summon up the energy to use all the words.Electronic viewfindersSo an EVF (transcript came up with EDF) is an electronic viewfinder. Electronic viewfinders these days are brilliant. They weren’t great to start with. But the technology got to the point now where you virtually cannot tell the difference between the optical viewfinder of a DSLR and the EVF of a mirrorless camera.Other cameras and compact camerasThese are often and wrongly called point-and-shoot cameras. They’re generally the cheaper cameras with smaller sensors. You can still take great photos with them. But yeah, compact cameras – I don’t know a great deal about and to be honest with you – look on the internet for compact cameras and you’ll see why I don’t know a lot about them.There are a lot of them.So what else do we have?Medium format cameras.Now one of the big differentiating factors between different camera systems is the size of the sensor. I’ll come on to this in a minute. A medium format camera has a bigger sensor than a DSLR. A DSLR has a bigger sensor than a cropped sensor camera which has a bigger sensor than a micro four thirds camera.Medium format cameras are more high-end professional cameras.Large format cameraYou can still get large format cameras with a very large film or sensor. The bigger the sensor the more specialist and expensive the camera is.Other camerasThere are also specialist cameras. You can get these incredibly clever 3D cameras that do 3D images, and even 360-degree images. And you can also get cameras that do 360 walkthroughs. I’ve recently looked at a camera called a Matterport. They cost about three grand and are quite complicated to use, but they give you a 3D walkthrough of a building, which is pretty much amazing.So what else do we have apart from these fancy things?Oh, yeah, the phone. Now for you youngsters who might not know this, back in the day of mobile phones, when they first came out, you used a mobile phone to do one of two things. You either phoned people and spoke to them or sent them a text message.To text you had nine keys on your phone (for the numbers 1-9) to select letters to text.These days, the cameras on phones are fantastic. I have an iPhone XS, and it takes fantastic photos. But it’s not replaced my DSLR or mirrorless camera. Okay, so these terms all seem a little bit strange. Let’s not worry about those, let’s concentrate on the main points about the different types of cameras.My summaryIn general terms, the bigger the sensor on the camera, the bigger and better the camera is, and the more expensive it is, and the higher end it is, in very general termsThe smaller the sensor, the smaller the camera is, and the cheaper the camera is.Disclaimer timeAnd I’ll caveat this massively, the smaller the camera sensor is the less professional the camera is – not. I’ll come on to different sensor types in a separate episode of the podcast.Remember this (as Take That once said)One thing I need to remember though, and one thing I want to say is this – buying the best camera in the world doesn’t guarantee you’ll take the best photos in the world. You can buy a great camera and take rubbish photos.You can also, well not with a rubbish camera, but with an average camera, if you know what you’re doing, take great photos. So a great camera doesn’t equal great photos.A cheap camera doesn’t equal rubbish photos.Nearly thereI’m sure there are a few other types of cameras but this is the main ones I wanted to talk about. What cameras do I use?I’ve got a full-frame DSLR that is a Canon 6D. This is the workhorse camera that I use for my architectural photography, construction photography and real estate photography work. It’s quite a basic, no-frills camera. What it does do though is it takes great photos day in and day out, and I love the sensor and the resolution on it.I also have a mirrorless camera which is actually a Micro Four Thirds camera. I’ll come on to that another time. It’s an Olympus, EM5 Mk2. I use that for my travel photography because it’s a lot smaller, more compact and takes great photos.One thing I will say here is that I used an Olympus EM1 which I was kindly loaned by Olympus on a commercial shoot and nobody noticed the difference (to photos taken with my Canon 6D) so you can use a Micro Four Thirds camera commercially. I have proved this by doing it and being paid for the job.Okay, that’s this episode done. This was just a very quick explanation of the different types of cameras. So what’s next on the photography explained called podcast?Which camera should I buy?Having told you about the different types of cameras, I’m going to give you some thoughts about how you might choose your next camera, regardless of what type it is.Thank youThank you for listening.

Many differences exist between brands of contact lenses which impact lens optics. The optics of the contact lens is determined by several factors including lens material1 and design2. Optics is the way in which the refraction of light is managed to maximize vision for the contact lens wearer3. Contact lenses with aspheric optics may provide enhanced vision for many wearers.

So a DSLR (not the DLSR – I’ll never live that one down – I should edit out really but I do not know how to edit audio and I’m not going to learn today).

First, is the DSLR, which I have helpfully annotated on my notes as DLSR. I am quite concerned – I can’t even spell a basic term like that right?DSLR is a digital single-lens reflex camera.Now what’s a single lens reflex camera I hear you all shouting at your, well whatever device you’re listening to this on. Very good question. And to answer that I need to go back in time to the days when we used to use this thing called film in cameras.Yes, camera film.SLRs were the cameras that tended to be used by professional photographers, there wasn’t a huge number of other choices, to be honest with you.I will go into a lot more detail another time because it is quite important, really. But for the purposes of this episode, I will not go into too much irrelevant detail.An SLR is a camera where through mirrors, prisms, strings, and magic and elastic trickery, you look through the viewfinder, and what you are actually looking at is actually through the middle of the lens. Marvellous science.So SLR is a single lens reflex camera.Film to DigitalNow take the film out of the back, put a sensor in and (in very crude terms) you have a DSLR. Yep, a bit of an oversimplification. But that’s the fundamental difference between the two.So a DSLR (not the DLSR – I’ll never live that one down – I should edit out really but I do not know how to edit audio and I’m not going to learn today).So DSLR was the camera that pros tended to use.

Hi, everybody. Welcome to Episode Six of the photography explained podcast. In this episode, what are the different types of cameras?

Thanks for listening to my podcast (if you did) and reading this blog post (which I assume you have done as you are reading this).Cheers from me Rick

If you go on the internet, you’ll find there are endless numbers of cameras out there. So what I want to do in this episode is quickly go through the different types of cameras and explain what they are, what I use, and what you might want to think about when you’re choosing your next camera.

03 – Different Types of Cameras · Compact cameras, sometimes also called point-and-shoot probably were your first camera. · Digital Single Lens Reflex cameras ( ...

I also have a mirrorless camera which is actually a Micro Four Thirds camera. I’ll come on to that another time. It’s an Olympus, EM5 Mk2. I use that for my travel photography because it’s a lot smaller, more compact and takes great photos.

You can also, well not with a rubbish camera, but with an average camera, if you know what you’re doing, take great photos. So a great camera doesn’t equal great photos.A cheap camera doesn’t equal rubbish photos.Nearly thereI’m sure there are a few other types of cameras but this is the main ones I wanted to talk about. What cameras do I use?I’ve got a full-frame DSLR that is a Canon 6D. This is the workhorse camera that I use for my architectural photography, construction photography and real estate photography work. It’s quite a basic, no-frills camera. What it does do though is it takes great photos day in and day out, and I love the sensor and the resolution on it.I also have a mirrorless camera which is actually a Micro Four Thirds camera. I’ll come on to that another time. It’s an Olympus, EM5 Mk2. I use that for my travel photography because it’s a lot smaller, more compact and takes great photos.One thing I will say here is that I used an Olympus EM1 which I was kindly loaned by Olympus on a commercial shoot and nobody noticed the difference (to photos taken with my Canon 6D) so you can use a Micro Four Thirds camera commercially. I have proved this by doing it and being paid for the job.Okay, that’s this episode done. This was just a very quick explanation of the different types of cameras. So what’s next on the photography explained called podcast?Which camera should I buy?Having told you about the different types of cameras, I’m going to give you some thoughts about how you might choose your next camera, regardless of what type it is.Thank youThank you for listening.

If you are sitting there scratching your head going, why is a camera called mirrorless, this is why. A DSLR/ SLR has a mirror in it, and a mirrorless camera doesn’t. That’s the difference.If we’re starting again from scratch now, SLR would be called I don’t know what, but a mirrorless camera would be called, erm a camera.So a mirrorless camera doesn’t have a mirror. You don’t look through the lens, you look through the viewfinder. And what you’re looking at is an electronic viewfinder. Obviously, we have to abbreviate that down to a EVF because we can’t summon up the energy to use all the words.Electronic viewfindersSo an EVF (transcript came up with EDF) is an electronic viewfinder. Electronic viewfinders these days are brilliant. They weren’t great to start with. But the technology got to the point now where you virtually cannot tell the difference between the optical viewfinder of a DSLR and the EVF of a mirrorless camera.Other cameras and compact camerasThese are often and wrongly called point-and-shoot cameras. They’re generally the cheaper cameras with smaller sensors. You can still take great photos with them. But yeah, compact cameras – I don’t know a great deal about and to be honest with you – look on the internet for compact cameras and you’ll see why I don’t know a lot about them.There are a lot of them.So what else do we have?Medium format cameras.Now one of the big differentiating factors between different camera systems is the size of the sensor. I’ll come on to this in a minute. A medium format camera has a bigger sensor than a DSLR. A DSLR has a bigger sensor than a cropped sensor camera which has a bigger sensor than a micro four thirds camera.Medium format cameras are more high-end professional cameras.Large format cameraYou can still get large format cameras with a very large film or sensor. The bigger the sensor the more specialist and expensive the camera is.Other camerasThere are also specialist cameras. You can get these incredibly clever 3D cameras that do 3D images, and even 360-degree images. And you can also get cameras that do 360 walkthroughs. I’ve recently looked at a camera called a Matterport. They cost about three grand and are quite complicated to use, but they give you a 3D walkthrough of a building, which is pretty much amazing.So what else do we have apart from these fancy things?Oh, yeah, the phone. Now for you youngsters who might not know this, back in the day of mobile phones, when they first came out, you used a mobile phone to do one of two things. You either phoned people and spoke to them or sent them a text message.To text you had nine keys on your phone (for the numbers 1-9) to select letters to text.These days, the cameras on phones are fantastic. I have an iPhone XS, and it takes fantastic photos. But it’s not replaced my DSLR or mirrorless camera. Okay, so these terms all seem a little bit strange. Let’s not worry about those, let’s concentrate on the main points about the different types of cameras.My summaryIn general terms, the bigger the sensor on the camera, the bigger and better the camera is, and the more expensive it is, and the higher end it is, in very general termsThe smaller the sensor, the smaller the camera is, and the cheaper the camera is.Disclaimer timeAnd I’ll caveat this massively, the smaller the camera sensor is the less professional the camera is – not. I’ll come on to different sensor types in a separate episode of the podcast.Remember this (as Take That once said)One thing I need to remember though, and one thing I want to say is this – buying the best camera in the world doesn’t guarantee you’ll take the best photos in the world. You can buy a great camera and take rubbish photos.You can also, well not with a rubbish camera, but with an average camera, if you know what you’re doing, take great photos. So a great camera doesn’t equal great photos.A cheap camera doesn’t equal rubbish photos.Nearly thereI’m sure there are a few other types of cameras but this is the main ones I wanted to talk about. What cameras do I use?I’ve got a full-frame DSLR that is a Canon 6D.

The CooperVision® portfolio of monthly, bi-weekly, and daily lenses are designed with aspheric optics. The Aberration Neutralizing System™ utilizes aspheric optics to neutralize the aberrations from the eye in the Biofinity®, Avaira Vitality™ and MyDay® families. clariti® 1 day contact lenses also offer an aspheric optical design.

* Warning: UV-absorbing contact lenses are not substitutes for protective UV-absorbing eyewear, such as UV-absorbing goggles or sunglasses, because they do not completely cover the eye and surrounding area. Patients should continue to use UV-absorbing eyewear as directed.

I will go into a lot more detail another time because it is quite important, really. But for the purposes of this episode, I will not go into too much irrelevant detail.An SLR is a camera where through mirrors, prisms, strings, and magic and elastic trickery, you look through the viewfinder, and what you are actually looking at is actually through the middle of the lens. Marvellous science.So SLR is a single lens reflex camera.Film to DigitalNow take the film out of the back, put a sensor in and (in very crude terms) you have a DSLR. Yep, a bit of an oversimplification. But that’s the fundamental difference between the two.So a DSLR (not the DLSR – I’ll never live that one down – I should edit out really but I do not know how to edit audio and I’m not going to learn today).So DSLR was the camera that pros tended to use. And that takes us on to the next type of camera I want to talk about which is a mirrorless camera.What is a mirrorless camera??If you are sitting there scratching your head going, why is a camera called mirrorless, this is why. A DSLR/ SLR has a mirror in it, and a mirrorless camera doesn’t.

10typesof camera

Now what’s a single lens reflex camera I hear you all shouting at your, well whatever device you’re listening to this on. Very good question. And to answer that I need to go back in time to the days when we used to use this thing called film in cameras.

The Biofinity® family of lenses are monthly replacement lenses designed with aspheric optics and combined with Aquaform® Technology to gives incredible end of day comfort for your patients. Biofinity® is the most prescribed monthly replacement on the market10 and will fit almost every patient with over 240,000 unique prescriptions11,12.

Biofinity Energys® and MyDay Energys® are designed for digital device users. DigitalBoost™ technology is an innovative single vision aspheric lens design that delivers a +0.3D digital boost, which helps reduce eye tiredness associated with digital eye strain. Study data demonstrates that devices users have a smaller change in accommodative micro-fluctuations (AMF) when wearing this DigitalBoost™ technology, suggesting reduced ciliary muscle stress when reading on a smartphone or other devices at a close distance9.

An SLR is a camera where through mirrors, prisms, strings, and magic and elastic trickery, you look through the viewfinder, and what you are actually looking at is actually through the middle of the lens. Marvellous science.

There are also specialist cameras. You can get these incredibly clever 3D cameras that do 3D images, and even 360-degree images. And you can also get cameras that do 360 walkthroughs. I’ve recently looked at a camera called a Matterport. They cost about three grand and are quite complicated to use, but they give you a 3D walkthrough of a building, which is pretty much amazing.

So what else do we have?Medium format cameras.Now one of the big differentiating factors between different camera systems is the size of the sensor. I’ll come on to this in a minute. A medium format camera has a bigger sensor than a DSLR. A DSLR has a bigger sensor than a cropped sensor camera which has a bigger sensor than a micro four thirds camera.Medium format cameras are more high-end professional cameras.Large format cameraYou can still get large format cameras with a very large film or sensor. The bigger the sensor the more specialist and expensive the camera is.Other camerasThere are also specialist cameras.

Now for you youngsters who might not know this, back in the day of mobile phones, when they first came out, you used a mobile phone to do one of two things. You either phoned people and spoke to them or sent them a text message.To text you had nine keys on your phone (for the numbers 1-9) to select letters to text.These days, the cameras on phones are fantastic. I have an iPhone XS, and it takes fantastic photos. But it’s not replaced my DSLR or mirrorless camera. Okay, so these terms all seem a little bit strange.

Regular spherical contact lenses have an even curvature across the entire lens surface; in contrast, aspheric lenses have varying curvatures across the surface changing from lens center to lens edge. Aspheric lenses are used to minimize optical aberrations within the human eye4. Parts of the eye including the tear film, cornea, and crystalline lens can induce aberrations. Contact lenses deliberately induce a level of aberration in the lens that is inversely equal to the amount of natural spherical aberration inherent in the eye to help give clear, crisp and sharp vision3.

Avaira Vitality™ lenses are highly breathable, bi-weekly replacement lenses designed with the same Aberration Neutralizing System™ as the Biofinity® family. The technology of a Avaira Vitality™ retains the lens surface moist all day, but also blocks transmission of 90% of UVA and 99% of UVB light*.

These are often and wrongly called point-and-shoot cameras. They’re generally the cheaper cameras with smaller sensors. You can still take great photos with them. But yeah, compact cameras – I don’t know a great deal about and to be honest with you – look on the internet for compact cameras and you’ll see why I don’t know a lot about them.

And here is the list of episodes published to date – you can listen to any episode straight from this page which is nice.

Now one of the big differentiating factors between different camera systems is the size of the sensor. I’ll come on to this in a minute. A medium format camera has a bigger sensor than a DSLR. A DSLR has a bigger sensor than a cropped sensor camera which has a bigger sensor than a micro four thirds camera.

Negative meniscus lenses are designed to minimize spherical aberration. These N-BK7, UV fused silica, calcium fluoride, and zinc selenide lenses consist of ...

Now take the film out of the back, put a sensor in and (in very crude terms) you have a DSLR. Yep, a bit of an oversimplification. But that’s the fundamental difference between the two.So a DSLR (not the DLSR – I’ll never live that one down – I should edit out really but I do not know how to edit audio and I’m not going to learn today).So DSLR was the camera that pros tended to use. And that takes us on to the next type of camera I want to talk about which is a mirrorless camera.What is a mirrorless camera??If you are sitting there scratching your head going, why is a camera called mirrorless, this is why. A DSLR/ SLR has a mirror in it, and a mirrorless camera doesn’t. That’s the difference.If we’re starting again from scratch now, SLR would be called I don’t know what, but a mirrorless camera would be called, erm a camera.So a mirrorless camera doesn’t have a mirror. You don’t look through the lens, you look through the viewfinder. And what you’re looking at is an electronic viewfinder. Obviously, we have to abbreviate that down to a EVF because we can’t summon up the energy to use all the words.Electronic viewfindersSo an EVF (transcript came up with EDF) is an electronic viewfinder. Electronic viewfinders these days are brilliant. They weren’t great to start with. But the technology got to the point now where you virtually cannot tell the difference between the optical viewfinder of a DSLR and the EVF of a mirrorless camera.Other cameras and compact camerasThese are often and wrongly called point-and-shoot cameras. They’re generally the cheaper cameras with smaller sensors. You can still take great photos with them. But yeah, compact cameras – I don’t know a great deal about and to be honest with you – look on the internet for compact cameras and you’ll see why I don’t know a lot about them.There are a lot of them.So what else do we have?Medium format cameras.Now one of the big differentiating factors between different camera systems is the size of the sensor. I’ll come on to this in a minute. A medium format camera has a bigger sensor than a DSLR. A DSLR has a bigger sensor than a cropped sensor camera which has a bigger sensor than a micro four thirds camera.Medium format cameras are more high-end professional cameras.Large format cameraYou can still get large format cameras with a very large film or sensor. The bigger the sensor the more specialist and expensive the camera is.Other camerasThere are also specialist cameras.

Let’s not worry about those, let’s concentrate on the main points about the different types of cameras.My summaryIn general terms, the bigger the sensor on the camera, the bigger and better the camera is, and the more expensive it is, and the higher end it is, in very general termsThe smaller the sensor, the smaller the camera is, and the cheaper the camera is.Disclaimer timeAnd I’ll caveat this massively, the smaller the camera sensor is the less professional the camera is – not. I’ll come on to different sensor types in a separate episode of the podcast.Remember this (as Take That once said)One thing I need to remember though, and one thing I want to say is this – buying the best camera in the world doesn’t guarantee you’ll take the best photos in the world.

I’ll come on to that another time. It’s an Olympus, EM5 Mk2. I use that for my travel photography because it’s a lot smaller, more compact and takes great photos.One thing I will say here is that I used an Olympus EM1 which I was kindly loaned by Olympus on a commercial shoot and nobody noticed the difference (to photos taken with my Canon 6D) so you can use a Micro Four Thirds camera commercially.

I use that for my travel photography because it’s a lot smaller, more compact and takes great photos.One thing I will say here is that I used an Olympus EM1 which I was kindly loaned by Olympus on a commercial shoot and nobody noticed the difference (to photos taken with my Canon 6D) so you can use a Micro Four Thirds camera commercially. I have proved this by doing it and being paid for the job.Okay, that’s this episode done. This was just a very quick explanation of the different types of cameras. So what’s next on the photography explained called podcast?Which camera should I buy?Having told you about the different types of cameras, I’m going to give you some thoughts about how you might choose your next camera, regardless of what type it is.Thank youThank you for listening.

So an EVF (transcript came up with EDF) is an electronic viewfinder. Electronic viewfinders these days are brilliant. They weren’t great to start with. But the technology got to the point now where you virtually cannot tell the difference between the optical viewfinder of a DSLR and the EVF of a mirrorless camera.Other cameras and compact camerasThese are often and wrongly called point-and-shoot cameras. They’re generally the cheaper cameras with smaller sensors. You can still take great photos with them. But yeah, compact cameras – I don’t know a great deal about and to be honest with you – look on the internet for compact cameras and you’ll see why I don’t know a lot about them.There are a lot of them.So what else do we have?Medium format cameras.Now one of the big differentiating factors between different camera systems is the size of the sensor. I’ll come on to this in a minute. A medium format camera has a bigger sensor than a DSLR. A DSLR has a bigger sensor than a cropped sensor camera which has a bigger sensor than a micro four thirds camera.Medium format cameras are more high-end professional cameras.Large format cameraYou can still get large format cameras with a very large film or sensor. The bigger the sensor the more specialist and expensive the camera is.Other camerasThere are also specialist cameras. You can get these incredibly clever 3D cameras that do 3D images, and even 360-degree images. And you can also get cameras that do 360 walkthroughs. I’ve recently looked at a camera called a Matterport. They cost about three grand and are quite complicated to use, but they give you a 3D walkthrough of a building, which is pretty much amazing.So what else do we have apart from these fancy things?Oh, yeah, the phone. Now for you youngsters who might not know this, back in the day of mobile phones, when they first came out, you used a mobile phone to do one of two things. You either phoned people and spoke to them or sent them a text message.To text you had nine keys on your phone (for the numbers 1-9) to select letters to text.These days, the cameras on phones are fantastic. I have an iPhone XS, and it takes fantastic photos. But it’s not replaced my DSLR or mirrorless camera. Okay, so these terms all seem a little bit strange. Let’s not worry about those, let’s concentrate on the main points about the different types of cameras.My summaryIn general terms, the bigger the sensor on the camera, the bigger and better the camera is, and the more expensive it is, and the higher end it is, in very general termsThe smaller the sensor, the smaller the camera is, and the cheaper the camera is.Disclaimer timeAnd I’ll caveat this massively, the smaller the camera sensor is the less professional the camera is – not. I’ll come on to different sensor types in a separate episode of the podcast.Remember this (as Take That once said)One thing I need to remember though, and one thing I want to say is this – buying the best camera in the world doesn’t guarantee you’ll take the best photos in the world. You can buy a great camera and take rubbish photos.You can also, well not with a rubbish camera, but with an average camera, if you know what you’re doing, take great photos. So a great camera doesn’t equal great photos.A cheap camera doesn’t equal rubbish photos.Nearly thereI’m sure there are a few other types of cameras but this is the main ones I wanted to talk about. What cameras do I use?I’ve got a full-frame DSLR that is a Canon 6D. This is the workhorse camera that I use for my architectural photography, construction photography and real estate photography work. It’s quite a basic, no-frills camera. What it does do though is it takes great photos day in and day out, and I love the sensor and the resolution on it.I also have a mirrorless camera which is actually a Micro Four Thirds camera. I’ll come on to that another time. It’s an Olympus, EM5 Mk2.

I’m your host, Rick, and each week I’ll try to explain one photographic thing to you in plain English in less than 10 minutes without the irrelevant details. My aim is to explain things in just enough detail to help us with our photography and no more.

The different types of cameras areDSLR – Digital Single Lens ReflexSLR – Single Lens ReflexMirrorless – Full Frame/ APS-C/ Micro Four ThirdsGo Pro/ action camerasCompactMedium formatLarge Format3D360PhoneSpecialistYou can listen to the episode hereOr keep on reading. Or do both. Entirely up to you!Do you need a camera?You don’t need a camera if you’re happy with a phone. Absolutely fine. But if you decide that you do need a camera, what kind of camera do you buy?If you go on the internet, you’ll find there are endless numbers of cameras out there. So what I want to do in this episode is quickly go through the different types of cameras and explain what they are, what I use, and what you might want to think about when you’re choosing your next camera.Okay, so what are the different types of cameras?1 DLSRFirst, is the DSLR, which I have helpfully annotated on my notes as DLSR. I am quite concerned – I can’t even spell a basic term like that right?DSLR is a digital single-lens reflex camera.Now what’s a single lens reflex camera I hear you all shouting at your, well whatever device you’re listening to this on. Very good question. And to answer that I need to go back in time to the days when we used to use this thing called film in cameras.Yes, camera film.SLRs were the cameras that tended to be used by professional photographers, there wasn’t a huge number of other choices, to be honest with you.I will go into a lot more detail another time because it is quite important, really. But for the purposes of this episode, I will not go into too much irrelevant detail.An SLR is a camera where through mirrors, prisms, strings, and magic and elastic trickery, you look through the viewfinder, and what you are actually looking at is actually through the middle of the lens. Marvellous science.So SLR is a single lens reflex camera.Film to DigitalNow take the film out of the back, put a sensor in and (in very crude terms) you have a DSLR. Yep, a bit of an oversimplification. But that’s the fundamental difference between the two.So a DSLR (not the DLSR – I’ll never live that one down – I should edit out really but I do not know how to edit audio and I’m not going to learn today).So DSLR was the camera that pros tended to use. And that takes us on to the next type of camera I want to talk about which is a mirrorless camera.What is a mirrorless camera??If you are sitting there scratching your head going, why is a camera called mirrorless, this is why. A DSLR/ SLR has a mirror in it, and a mirrorless camera doesn’t. That’s the difference.If we’re starting again from scratch now, SLR would be called I don’t know what, but a mirrorless camera would be called, erm a camera.So a mirrorless camera doesn’t have a mirror. You don’t look through the lens, you look through the viewfinder. And what you’re looking at is an electronic viewfinder. Obviously, we have to abbreviate that down to a EVF because we can’t summon up the energy to use all the words.Electronic viewfindersSo an EVF (transcript came up with EDF) is an electronic viewfinder. Electronic viewfinders these days are brilliant. They weren’t great to start with. But the technology got to the point now where you virtually cannot tell the difference between the optical viewfinder of a DSLR and the EVF of a mirrorless camera.Other cameras and compact camerasThese are often and wrongly called point-and-shoot cameras.
