What is a Mirrorless Camera: DSLR Video Tips

On this week's DSLR Video Tips we'll explore mirrorless cameras.  Have you ever worked with a mirrorless camera?  When mirrorless cameras take the image it doesn't hit a mirror and bounce off like DSLR cameras.  There are pros and cons to using these types of cameras.  Join Robbie and I as we jump into the studio to do a live recording with musician, Jason Masi demoing three different mirrorless cameras.  Check out the various shots, picture quality and perspective of these cameras.  Discover the ability to completely be adaptable and flexible with all sorts of lenses from Nikon, to PL, to FD mount lenses.
