Before the advent of DSLR cameras, photography was considered a difficult art. A few people were in the possession of professional camera, and an even smaller group was truly skilled in the art of Photography, learning the proper use of those cameras was difficult and the professional photography equipment wasn’t readily available. Then digital cameras came and everyone was buying one, but when DSLRs became easily available they took the photography industry by storm. A device which was only used by professionals could now be owned by any photography enthusiast.

Learning to capture professional grade photographs using DSLRs was now easy, it was now when one can learn the basics easily from freely available web courses and videos, with an adequate amount of time spent honing the skills, it is now easy for a photography enthusiast to capture high-quality photos.

DSLRs came a long way, from the beginning there have been several improvements and upgrades. Many high-level companies started trying their luck in DSLR manufacturing, which now makes it easier for a user to have multiple options while choosing one that fits their needs.

From size to resolutions, every thing constantly got updated and will be updated in the foreseeable future. In fact, you can expect much more changes in the coming years where every DSLR manufacturer is trying to better their products.

Let’s take a look at updates and changes you can expect in the near future.

Size

Although, DSLRs can capture truly high definition photos, and even a novice can learn the ropes in a week and start photographing, but there has always been an issue of the portability of these cameras. Meaning - their size is often way too big to carry, people especially want to capture photos when they go on long trips and vacations, at those moments the shear size can pose a problem, and their weight is also not has been ideal, they are often difficult to carry in your backpack; that is if you manage to fit one in without damaging the equipment.

Even though the problem of weight alone can be solved by using Tripods, but they’re also not very practical, because you will have to not only carry your big camera but also a tripod to put it on, too much of a hassle.

But you can expect this to change in the future, the future cameras will be more compact and small, without losing their picture quality. There is significant progress being already made with reducing the sizes, for instance, the Canon Rebel SL1 is the world’s smallest and most portable DSLR available yet, you can easily carry this anywhere you go and capture photos.

Apart from Canon, more manufacturers are also looking at ways by which they can change the sizes, there are mirror fewer cameras available which don’t weight that much and are quite small in size compared to most DSLRs but their picture quality does not match with the DSLRs, companies are looking into ways by which they can incorporate mirror fewer cameras and DSLRs side by side so you could have compactness and quality at the same time.

More Megapixels, more Clarity

Having high mega pixels and capturing life like photos is the real strong suite. While the common resolutions range from 20-40 Mega pixels in most Cameras, developers are now able to make cameras that can go as high as 60 mega pixels. If that becomes the standard with all DSLRs in coming years, then it would be a real treat for a photographer, at 60 mega pixels, there would be no difference left between your photos and the real life image.

If there are more pixels than you can also have higher ISO settings, which basically means that photos will be much clearer even when the conditions of light aren’t very good, and also at the time of night. However, images can get noisy when the ISO settings are set very high, manufacturers coming with higher mega pixels should also consider this and try to keep high quality no matter how the settings of ISO are.

Sharp action photos and stills pictures from videos

If you have ever tried to capture action photos (where the subject is moving rapidly and you’re trying to capture still images) then you would know that it’s not really an easy task, even with DSLRs capturing photos from a high paced action scene; a fast paced football match for instance, usually results in grainy and often blurry images. But fret not future DSLRs will be able to capture action photos with much more clarity, thanks to their higher frame rates, capturing action would become just like capturing still life, with the same standard high quality of DSLRs.

Like capturing action photos, getting good stills out of a video is also something most DSLRs are not very good at capturing stills from high-resolution videos. Even if you manage to get a good still out of it, it’s very likely that it will be somewhat blurry, especially while zooming pixels will appear out of order and noisy, the quality of videos cannot be retained easily in stills. Although Canon introduced its EOS D1 camera that allows you to capture stills from your high-quality videos, these stills are of the same high quality and don’t have the pixel noise problem as well. But a single camera, when there are literally hundreds of DSLRs available and there are plenty more manufacturers besides Canon. More companies need to create such options to capture stills from videos while keeping the exact same high resolution and pixel rate.

Sharing will be easier

With the rapid growth of social media, when you’re taking a photo you are not usually taking it just for your own self you also want the world to see it. Whether you choose to set it as your profile picture on Facebook or share it on Instagram, you would want the quality to be top notch. After all, there is no point in having a blurry picture as your display which as its pixels all over the place.

But sadly, these cameras don’t allow you to share the photos taken with them, of course, you can move them to your flash drives or laptops and share them from there, but it would be nice to have the option to simultaneously capture and share those high-resolution photos. Mirror fewer cameras have this option, but then again when it comes to quality there is no competitor to DSLR camera. The good thing, however, is that you can expect in near future to have this option right in your DSLR.

Along with this if users could have an Electronic View Finder, it would be much easier for photographers to focus on things, especially while zooming.

Mirror less cameras are giving tough competition to DSLRs with their sizes and features, but they still can’t match the quality. The manufacturers are trying to better their products at a rapid speed to stay in the market which is actually a great thing for users.

To sum up this article, we can say that we can expect much more in the future from the photography industry. All of the latest Cameras of the industry are available in our Camera’s section. If you're interested in purchasing a Camera then visit our store.
