Digital Single Lens Reflex camera -- a digital camera that uses mirrors and a pentaprisim (or pentamirror) so that the optical viewfinder looks out through the camera lens. DSLRs are characterized by having interchangeable lenses and generally more professional features than point-and-shoot cameras, such as better autofocus, less noisy images in low light, and faster frame rates.

Get the dslr guy mug.Useful resource for broadband information - users there tend to be over-opinionated on all other matters AND unknowledgeable on those matters at the same time though. It's a kinda 50-50 forum, some good info and some good people.. but marred by too many newbies bitching about things they know nothing about!
