Difference between DSLR and your phones:

• 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
