The problem known as viewfinder blackout occurs
when you can't see the image when taking a shot. A
DSLR camera's mirror flips up and out of the way
when the shutter button is pressed, allowing light to
travel through to the image sensor.
Because of the mirror box and
pentaprism/pentamirror, single-lens
reflex cameras are not as small or light
as other camera designs, such as
rangefinder cameras, autofocus
compact cameras, and digital cameras
with electronic viewfinders (EVF).

TWIN LENS/DOUBLE LENS
Because the mirror is fixed and the
taking lens remains open throughout
the exposure, the separate viewing
lens allows for extended shutter
speeds. While the exposure is in
progress, the photographer can inspect
the image.
Because the photographer takes a
picture through one screen, but
the photograph is taken on the
other, the image differed from the
view on the screen due to a
parallax mistake.

REFLECTION:
With all the advantages and disadvantages of each type of camera, write an article on which camera do you think is more effective for police
photography.

The technological tools available to police officers for capturing events at a crime scene are critical in determining the

criminal's role and preventing his escape from justice. Modern SLR (Single Lens Reflex) cameras, for example, allow

police personnel to photograph an incident from their point of view. This enables them to collect photographs of

sensitive data that would otherwise be lost in standard cameras. SLR cameras are always reliable for photographing

evidence that is likely to be lost shortly from the crime scene, denying officers a second opportunity to capture the
