(or), also known just as Nikon, is a Japanese multinational corporation headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, specializing in optics and imaging products.

A digital single-lens reflex camera (also called a digital SLR or DSLR) is a digital camera that combines the optics and the mechanisms of a single-lens reflex camera with a digital imaging sensor, as opposed to photographic film.

The reflex design scheme is the primary difference between a DSLR and other digital cameras.

In the reflex design, light travels through the lens, then to a mirror that alternates to send the image to either the viewfinder or the image sensor.

The alternative would be to have a viewfinder with its own lens, hence the term "single lens" for this design.

By using only one lens, the viewfinder of a DSLR presents an image that will not perceptibly differ from what is captured by the camera's sensor.

A digital camera or digicam is a camera that produces digital images that can be stored in a computer, displayed on a screen and printed.

Most cameras sold today are digital, and digital cameras are incorporated into many devices ranging from PDAs and mobile phones (called camera phones) to vehicles.

A mirrorless interchangeable lens camera is a digital camera with an interchangeable lens.

A mirrorless camera uses an image sensor to provide an image to the electronic viewfinder (EVF).

It is called mirrorless since it does not have a movable mirror in the optical path.

A camera lens (also known as photographic lens or photographic objective) is an optical lens or assembly of lenses used in conjunction with a camera body and mechanism to make images of objects either on photographic film or on other media capable of storing an image chemically or electronically.
