Having killed off the DSLR (grrr), mirrorless cameras have evolved into ‘hybrid’ cameras that can also be used for video creation. They’ve become the ‘professional’ upgrade for countless vloggers and content creators.
It’s this idea, unquestioned as far as I can see, that they are the bee’s knees for video that needs some closer examination, I think, particularly since they are often aimed at new or novice users who are easily led to believe they are inherently superior to other video capture devices, like action cameras, 360 cameras, gimbal cameras like the DJI Pocket 3 or even the video smartphones that they may already have.
