DSLR Stands for digital single-lens reflex With an SLR camera, you see exactly what the lens sees You can change the lens on a digital SLR Digital SLRs have large image sensors that produce high-quality photos An SLR has a near-zero lag time, and is ideal for action photography You can take photos of everything from sleeping kittens to race cars and you'll never be limited by your camera.

Mechanics of a DSLR camera Light passes through the lens and strikes a mirror (green) The mirror reflects the light up to a focusing screen Light passes through the focusing screen and enters a block of glass called a pentaprism (orange) The pentaprism reflects the image so that you can see it in the viewfinder When you take a photo, the mirror flips up and a shutter (blue) opens that exposes the digital sensor (red) to light

Memory Card When you take a picture on a digital camera, it is recorded onto a flash memory storage card. Flash memory offers fast read/write times and are very reliable being able to withstand extreme conditions.
