There are many types of cameras, in two broad categories, film and digital.
- Film Cameras
Distinguishing Features of Camera Types
The main distinguishing features between different types of cameras are:
- the shape of the body (rigid, folding, monorail...)
- the viewing system (external finder, SLR, TLR...)
- the focusing system (guess focusing, rangefinder, reflex...)
- the lens attachment (fixed, fixed zoom, interchangeable)
- the sensor (digital, 35mm film, 120 film, cut film...) and the format (24x36mm, 6x6cm...)
Unusual combinations of these features have existed, for example folding TLRs, subminiature SLRs and so on.
