"Digital SLR's, normally come from about six mega pixels, generally go to the older ones, to about twelve. And, they're going to go to the greater mega pixels, even sixteen and up in the future. And they're coming out with more exposure modes, more ways to up flashes, with a hot shoot, so you can use a hot shoot type flash or other kinds of flash connections, and they are faster. When they start up they're faster. The zooms are generally faster in speed when you zoom in and out, and they have all the bells and whistles that even the prosumer cameras don't have. So, there are lots of features to consider with those, and we're not going to go into too much detail. But you have to remember that as professionals, you'll know all those features."

on 6/9/2009 If I may, you might consider learning more about something if you are going to post a video about it. And just FYI, A DSLR does not control the Zoom. The lens, if it has the capability to zoom, such as a 18mm-55mm, is what controls the zoom. The speed of the zoom is determined by how fast you turn your hand to zoom in. Please take the time to learn about what you talking about. “You should know this if you are a professional” well while that is true, this is EHOW and you are trying to teach. So basically what you are trying to say is that you are not a professional, and obviously do not know what you are talking about. And FYI the camera you are holding is not a DSLR. Cheers mate.
