Introducing a camera called a digital single lens reflex i.e. DSLR cameras. DSLRs are almost similar to any normal point and shoot or compact camera. Only its size can enable you to differentiate it from the rest.

Many features makes a DLSR unique but what really sets it apart is its optical system, clarity of pictures and speed. The optical system makes it possible for a user to see the photo exactly as it is without being altered by digital elements.

In a point and shoot digital camera the image that you see through the eyepiece or the LCD screen is digitally generated whereas in a digital SLR camera the image is taken to the eyepiece by mirrors and lenses that reflects the image from one mirror to another and through to the viewfinder. This is essentially what a digital SLR camera is, It must now be clear what we mean when we say in a DSLR you see the exact image without any digital modification. So when the cameras user takes a picture a shutter flips up letting the light with the image to reflect on the prism and lenses within a split of a second. This is why unlike your typical camera, the speed is particularly fast.

Over and above that, professional DSLRs have interchangeable lenses that allow users to use a custom built lens for a particular shot this could be a landscape shot, portrait shot, micro or macro shot. Some of the available lenses are even built to take motion shots. Hope the latter point explains the haziness in your point and shoot camera motion pictures. These digital SLRs also have large image sensors that produce high picture quality.

There are two types of these cameras, professional and non professional ones. You can buy any type based on the level of expertise. Most online shops sell both types so when you start looking, it should not be a problem finding what you like. Now over and above what has been already mentioned, the good thing is that all digital SLR cameras come with automatic settings, which means you can use them as you get accustomed to the gadget.
