Full reviews of most popular brands. Note too that the relatively new mirrorless cameras are predicted to almost completely replace DSLR cameras for travel photography.

I looked at a Mirrorless camera last time I bought a camera as a compact alternative. I am not sure if things have changed but the main area that they fell over in my opinion was auto focus. They use contrast focus vs the parallex focus that a prism and mirror allows, which makes them a lot slower to focus. That was the killer for me and I didn't look any further.
That was 12 months ago though.
