mirrorless camera

No reflex viewfinder

A mirrorless camera is a digital camera that captures images directly through its lens sensor rather than using the mirror-and-prism system found in traditional SLRs.

The elimination of the mirror mechanism allows for a more compact body while retaining interchangeable lenses and professional image quality: She switched to mirrorless for the lighter weight.
