Canon mini DSLR

For some time it looked like the DSLR camera was going the way of the Dodo, at least for entry level DSLR cameras. The Compact System Camera (CSC), a camera with interchangeable lenses but no mirror, is getting more and more popular as a lightweight and small alternative to the DSLR. Canon may have changed that today, with the introduction of the EOS-100D (Rebel SL1 in the USA). This is a true DSLR camera with an optical view finder, but its dimensions and weight are remarkable. It’s smaller than the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH3 for example, a CSC camera with a electronic view finder and a smaller sensor.
