Cross section of SLR camera. Until the development of SLR, all cameras with viewfinders had two optical light paths: one through the lens to the film, and another positioned above (TLR or twin-lens reflex) or to the side (rangefinder). Because the viewfinder and the film lens cannot share the same optical path, the viewing lens is aimed to ...
A digital single-lens reflex camera (digital SLR or DSLR) is a digital camera that combines the optics and mechanisms of a single-lens reflex camera with a solid-state image sensor and digitally records the images from the sensor. The reflex design scheme is the primary difference between a DSLR and other digital cameras.
These cameras use the Sigma SA-mount, for which Sigma makes a line of lenses. The Sigma DSLR cameras that use the SA mount are the Sigma SD9, SD10, SD14, SD15 and SD1 Merrill. These cameras are noteworthy for their use of the Foveon X3 sensor, an image sensor that works on quite different principles from the sensors used in all other digital ...
The Rolleiflex SL2000F is a line of modular 135 film single lens reflex cameras (SLR) made by Rollei which share the QBM lens mount with the earlier Rolleiflex SL35 line, adding interchangeable film backs, similar in concept to contemporary medium format SLR systems including the Rolleiflex SL66 / SLX, Hasselblad V-System, and Mamiya RB67.
It's sometimes stated that the AE-1 was the first microprocessor-equipped SLR, but this is incorrect. Canon's competitor Nikon introduced 1972 the Nikkormat EL, the world's first camera with an IC. [1] However, Canon was able to integrate more functions into the microprocessor and hence make the camera smaller.
This is the extent of self-timer release available. All functions are activated by the left-hand front located threaded shutter release button. A film-cutting device is located inside the camera. It enables a partially exposed film to be removed from the camera in daylight for processing provided the left-hand take-up spool was placed in a ...
It was made to couple with the Honeywell Strobonar electronic flashes using an electronic eye that was located at the top-left of the camera. In 1971 the Electro-Spotmatic was the first aperture-priority, electronic, automatic SLR but was only sold in Japan. [6] It success was followed by the ES sold internationally from 1972.
Basically a stripped down Minolta SR-2 with shutter speeds reduced to 1/500 of a second rather than the SR-2's 1/1000 of a second. Next came the Minolta SR-3. The camera had an ability to mount a selenium meter, which was then linked to the shutter speed. This particular camera was released in 1960, two years before the release of the SR-7.
