The picture below shows the system of major camera type groups.
Large format
This type of camera is expensive, often reading a price tag of easily over five thousand pounds. It is often used by the professionals, and produces stunning images.
Medium format
Between Large format, and DSLR, slightly cheaper than a large format, but still capable of stunning images
DSLR/ SLT
Produce very good pictures, but is not competition for Medium or Large format cameras
EVIL /MILC/ CSC
Compact body, interchangeable lenses, DSLR sensor
Compact
Point and shoot. For those who want to take a picture, but don’t give a… tinkle (!!) about exposure, WB, etc,( although some cameras do allow semi auto modes (Av) and (Tv))
Toy
Well, it is good for practice for children if it actually functions, but does not really deserve a mention in this section!
