Simply put, it is <strong>a camera with a sensor the same size as a 35mm film frame.<\/strong> The image quality holds up better over time, and you won\u2019t run into the battery issues that mirrorless cameras are known for.

These are cameras that operate without the internal mirror system found in traditional DSLRs, making them lighter and more compact. If you are shooting food photography or setting up a self-portrait studio, a <strong>mirrorless camera<\/strong> can absolutely work.
