Question of the day! 👉👉 Are you team or team ?

Reason why you might be team :
- Through the lens viewfinder (see exactly what your lens sees!)
- Access to a wide range of lenses and accessories.
- Automated features such as Auto exposure or autofocusing in newer models, great for beginners.
- Ideal for fast moving objects such as sports or action.
- Popular SLRS: Canon AE-1 Program, Olympus OM series, Nikon FM series.

Reason why you might be team :
- Bigger and brighter viewfinder with frame lines as an indication on what will be captured. Allows the shooter to observe, adjust and decide on the perfect shot.
- Much more compact and light weight in size compared to SLR, such as the Olympus XA.
- Quieter shutter as there is no “mirror clap” thus more discreet, great for street photography.
- Mirrorless means no shutter shake and also sharper images.
- Popular Rangefinders: Leica M series, Canonet QL17, Olympus XA
