Had the Nikon D40 which is DSLR, and sure it's fun when it's heavy and you gotta look through the OVF which adds to the experience, but mirrorless imo is more efficient and more modern. But each to their own I guess.
You want precise visualization on your image? Just use the screen live view mode! You might as well record video thru the viewfinder on a mirrorless camera

i still love how my old a200 feels! it feels so raw compared to a modern mirrorless. and boi, only need to carry 1 battery for a full day shoot is really good! :D
With all these comments here, thank you so much! I can finally pick what body I want to get and I concluded with mirrorless, I have dslr had it since 2012. The quality then and now are far different. (I got d3200 nikon) importing files from the camera to my hard drive is kinda hassling because of couple of things. And I needed a new one.
The thing that this short didn't cover is that DSLR also had an additional focus sensor the mirror points towards. That's why DSLR was still better than mirrorless around 2010, but also why any given DSLR model wouldn't autofocus as fast in live-view versus using the optical viewfinder. Mirrorless cameras have improved autofocus over the years so it hasn't been a disadvantage for years+ and mirorless is now the choice for people who like fast responsive autofocus. Myself I still love older manual lenses so I mostly manual focus even on mirrorless camera bodies. You can get inexpensive adapters to be able to fit Nikon F, and M42, and Pentax and any lens on to any brand mirrorless and then manual focus its my favorite part about mirrorless.
The difference in photo quality between DSLRs and mirrorless of the same year or with the same sensor, for example Nikon d7500, d500 will give the same result as Nikon z30,z50,zFc. Any DSLR with live-view mode essentially works like a mirrorless camera
Been using the DSLRs for about 4 years, now, I think? My latest body's the 5diii while I use the 5dc before for full frame DSLR. And I've been happy for that, especially the depth of fields are amazing than previouslywith the crops APSC. No need some reasons to get mirrorless for now because the battery life on the mirrorless systems are weak than those on DSLRs. What I've wanted now is the decent lens. I hope this help for the first timer. Unless you are need some fancy cameras, then it's up to you.
But the advantage of a dslr is that it has a longer battery life since it doesn't have to constantly power up an LCD unlike Mirrorless which the viewfinder has to be continuously on
It just depends, what you're want to do with it. I know a lot of people that do amazing shots on DSLR's. I for myself got an Alpha 7 III, Just because it fits more for my style of photography. Also, some shots don't have much opportunities to happen again, so, what I get as photo needs to sit. Also, the flippable display is just awesome, because with my old 500d that was a little bit annoying, specially for some car photography. :)
Got a mirrorless camera Sony 6400 with a 50mm lense and for some reason I like how pictures look when I take them with my phone more. I don't know what I'm doing wrong
Got my first camera, a canon t7. Ive invested some money into a 50 mm 1.8 and a 70-200mm 2.8. Pictures have come out great so far. Idk if i would ever get something else cuz i dont what i would get lol
People in the comments really need a reality check. And a deep dive into what a 10YO canon can do with magic lantern. 14 bit raw video... purely insane for just 200 bucks Yeah, cant beat that..
DSLR are making photography fun again like on the film age, there's something exciting part of process, while mirrorless cameras, majority of the new models set your settings, opinions or controls and A.I. will take care of all of it. And the more you know, the more you getting boring to use of it. Excitement are gone
My nikon z6ii has 5 axis IBIS, the max for any F mount DSLR from nikon is 3 axis... thats just one of many superior features on my mirrorless. I love DSLR but mirrorless is better
The quality of optical stabilization depends on the lens, on more professional optics it works better than ibis, and best of all when ibis works together with optical stabilization.
The only downside with most mirrorless cameras (especially higher end ones) is their top LCD (control panel). Like, it's a petty thing, but come on. The control panels on the 6d Mark ii and 90d are soft rectangles with amber backlight. The R5 literally just inverts the color on a sqaure. The lumix dc-g9 got the memo, but its also four-thirds (not even aps-c). Which control panel style is better? The digital sqaure, or the soft rectangle?
Am i right on this- in mirrorless i have to be worried about dust? In DSLR still but wuite less. If yes then for my clumsy being. DSLR is better choice 😂
Two more caveats, mirror less is usually more compact, and DSLRs are better for low light photography as you can see what the camera could capture and adjust your settings accordingly
For me, DSLRs are better, since I photograph birds in flight and follow birds in flight with a mirrorless is horrible, u know lag (unless you have an R3 or Z9, but they are still very expensive)
A word of caution for those of you who are planning to break into the professional photography industry as a part time or full time job. Some clients/event establishments will insist on DSLR cameras only. If you have a mirrorless you will not get the job. It is mentioned clearly in the job description. I decided to stick with a DSLR is exactly for that reason since I do not want to limit my pool of photography work. While the camera manufacturers see mirrorless cameras as the future. DSLR is not going away from what I'm currently experiencing.
why would they insist on not using mirror less cameras? I suppose they could make one less efficient at taking good photos in a particular environment, idk
You probably don’t want to be shooting for someone who insists on using a DSLR, it’s not like having a mirror magically changes the photo, I mean besides making it more shaky.

Better battery life, more rugged, better ergonomics, optical viewfinder if you prefer that, (that's personal preference, not some universal advantage.
