DSLR vs Mirrorless

[pxbradley1]

As a photography newbie I find it interesting that a lot of the recommendations are to go mirrorless. As an engineer, I question that logic. SLRs and DLSRs have been around a lot longer than mirrorless cameras. I think technology can only improve so I would not be inclined to jump into something that new given the price.

I can relate to this. I'm a musician but I don't collect instruments. I  can't call myself a photographer but i wouldn't be inclined to collect cameras. I also have difficulty justifying buying a camera that costs more than my custom handmade acoustic guitar cost. I don't make a living playing music or taking pictures. I'll keep my T7 and continue to  explore composition, lighting techniques and whatever else I can learn.

I think that each person has their own situation and there have been many takes on the relationship between users and technology.  Each person is different, so of course their criteria will reflect that.  That is the nature of our diverse society - which is a good thing!
