Here are 10 things you need to know.<\/h2>\n<p>Mirrorless cameras have been increasing in popularity over the last few years and for good reason. They\u00a0offer many benefits over traditional DSLRs&#8230;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"1-mirrorless-cameras-arent-limited-to-cropped-sensors\">1. Mirrorless Cameras Aren\u2019t Limited to Cropped Sensors<\/h3>\n<p>Even though most popular mirrorless cameras are cropped, it is possible to have a full-frame mirrorless camera. For example, some cameras like the <a title=\"Leica M-Series\" href=\"http:\/\/us.leica-camera.com\/Photography\/Leica-M\/About-the-M-System\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Lecia M9<\/a>\u00a0and the <a title=\"Sony Full Frame Mirrorless Camera\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/explora\/photography\/news\/first-look-sony-introduces-a7-full-frame-mirrorless-system\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Sony A7<\/a> are both full-frame and mirrorless. Having a full frame sensor is important because it allows\u00a0you to get wide shots without having to use an expensive fish-eye lens or a speedbooster.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"2-mirrorless-cameras-are-small-and-lightweight\">2. Mirrorless Cameras are Small and Lightweight<\/h3>\n<p>Because mirrorless cameras don\u2019t have a mirrorbox mechanism, they tend to be smaller and lightweight. For example, the new Sony A7S is only a little over a pound &#8211; that&#8217;s half the weight of the Canon 5D Mark III.\u00a0While it may not make a big difference on a professional shoot, if you do a lot of street photography a lighter camera can do wonders for your shoulders.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"3-mirrorless-cameras-dont-have-mirrors\">3. Mirrorless Cameras Don\u2019t Have Mirrors<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pbblogassets.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Mirrorless-Shutter-Example.gif\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-51388\" src=\"https:\/\/pbblogassets.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Mirrorless-Shutter-Example.gif\" alt=\"Mirrorless Shutter Example\" width=\"762\" height=\"304\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><em>A<\/em><em>n Example of a Mirrorless Shutter: Learn more about this process on our <a title=\"How Camera Shutters Work\" href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/how-camera-shutters-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">How Camera Shutters Work<\/a> post<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Do you\u00a0know what &#8220;mirrorless&#8221; means? In short, a mirrorless camera is different than\u00a0a DSLR because it doesn\u2019t use a mirrorbox to send the image to the viewfinder. Instead, when looking into the viewfinder on\u00a0a mirrorless camera you are actually viewing a digital representation of the image as it passes through\u00a0the sensor.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"4-mirrorless-cameras-have-a-shorter-flange-focal-distance-than-dslrs\">4. Mirrorless Cameras have a Shorter Flange-Focal Distance than DSLRs<\/h3>\n<p>A flange-focal distance is the distance from the end of the lens to the camera sensor. In a DSLR, the flange focal distance must be large enough to allow space for a mirror, but in a mirrorless camera you don\u2019t have this issue.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"5-speedboosters-make-mirrorless-cameras-much-more-viable-for-video-production\">5. Speedboosters Make Mirrorless Cameras Much More Viable for Video Production<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pbblogassets.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-51584\" src=\"https:\/\/pbblogassets.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg\" alt=\"Metabones Speedbooster Example\" width=\"740\" height=\"465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg 740w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg?resize=300,189 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg?resize=277,174 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg?resize=359,226 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg?resize=543,341 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg?resize=560,352 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/New-Metabones-Blackmagic-Pocket-Cinema-Camera-Speed-Booster.jpg?resize=150,94 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>Photo via <a title=\"NoFilmSchool\" href=\"http:\/\/nofilmschool.com\/2013\/12\/blackmagic-cinema-pocket-camera-super-35mm-new-metabones-speed-booster\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">NoFilmSchool<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no secret that most mirrorless cameras have cropped sensors. This is normally a problem because of the difficulty in capturing\u00a0wide shots with a cropped sensor&#8230;.that was until Speedboosters became prevalent. Speedboosters, like the <a title=\"Metabones Speedboosters\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metabones.com\/products\/?c=speed-booster\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">ones created by Metabones<\/a>, not only increase the incoming light of your lens, but they also make your overall image wider.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"6-some-mirrorless-cameras-can-shoot-4k-video\">6. Some Mirrorless Cameras Can Shoot 4K Video<\/h3>\n<p>Many of the most popular mirrorless cameras, like the Panasonic GH4, allow users to shoot in 4K. Gone are the days of mirrorless cameras being behind when it comes to resolution. Other mirrorless cameras, like the Sony A7S, can output 4K via HDMI. While it&#8217;s safe to say that the market isn&#8217;t quite ready to watch\/broadcast videos at 4K resolution, having the ability to record 4K is a great way to insure your camera is future-proof and gives you more options in post.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"7-mirrorless-cameras-can-take-more-than-just-mft-lenses\">7.

These lens mounts range from the high-end Leica M mount to the consumer level Samsung NX Mount.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"8-mirrorless-cameras-arent-just-for-amateurs\">8. Mirrorless Cameras Aren\u2019t Just for Amateurs<\/h3>\n<p>You definitely won\u2019t have to look long to\u00a0find an amateur mirrorless camera, but the same could be said about DSLR cameras. You might be surprised to hear that mirrorless cameras aren\u2019t just entry or mid-level cameras, they can actually get pretty high-end. Luxury camera manufacturers like Leica have camera lines\u00a0that are entirely mirrorless.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"9-mirrorless-evf-viewfinders-give-you-in-line-exposure-read-outs\">9.

However, when you use a mirroless camera you are actually looking at a small video screen instead of an optical viewfinder. This can be better because it gives you an accurate image\u00a0readout without having to take a\u00a0picture and review how it looks.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"10-mirrorless-cameras-are-silent\">10. Mirrorless Cameras are Silent<\/h3>\n<p>Because mirrorless cameras don\u2019t have a mirror box on the inside of the camera they don\u2019t have to flip a mirror up when shooting a picture. For this reason, the operation of a mirrorless camera is quiet.\u00a0This is a great feature if you shoot live events like weddings or ceremonies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mirrorless cameras aren&#8217;t just for amateurs anymore.
