This might sound silly but is this actually an slr camera?

No, it's a bridge camera, has many features that a slr camera does. But, has a fixed lens, and usually a smaller sensor. This one isn't bad at all, I'm very pleased with it. Just have to understand, it isn't a $1000.00 camera.

Sorry, it's my daughter's camera and I had to wait for her to get home. She says yes it is.

No, it is a film camera. I purchased it for a photography class and it works great. We are now doing Black and White Photography and it takes outstanding photos.

Yes.. This is very easy to shoot... It's not SLR professional camera.. It's very handy n easy to operate..

I do not believe it is. It is very similar to a standard rearview camera that is used on late model cars.

No, this is a point and shoot camera. BUT there is an accessory that you can order that you atach to the lens. It has a mirror so you'll be able to take "selfies" or group pictures with ease.

These "cheapie" cameras are just a step above a point-and-shoot so they have no attachment capability; this is not a DSLR camera - it only looks like one. I am a Realtor and have been using a Fuji Finepix S2000HD camera that is this style, for several years. It is 10 megapixel with 15x zoom; basically equates to a 35mm film camera nice wide angle 24mm up to 360mm for taking long shots from a distance when necessary. Electronic viewfinder. It has served me well over the years, but now the flash won't turn on anymore, so I'm investigating potential replacement cameras that have optical or electronic viewfinders (LCD is impossible to see here in the desert when taking exterior photos). This GE is one I am considering, if I can find out more details by reading about it here on Amazon. (I have not yet looked at the Fuji to do a new-Fuji-to-my-Fuji comparison)

The picture posted is the actual camera. The lenses are bought separately and attached to the camera. I bought mine new, but that was a long time ago. The only way you can get these now are used.The newest one in the line is the 1D Mark IV, like Titus said, but if you don't know what an DSLR is you might want to watch this explanation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fb6gG9OcUNs and then decide if you need a DSLR or maybe think about getting a point and shoot.

yes it is. it is somewhere between a point-and-shoot and a full-fledged dlsr. we love it, as it's not so complicated to use but the video and pic quality is superb. maybe not professional quality but for home use, it is perfect.

No, just time lapse...overall camera is just okay, it's a hobbyist device at best.

It is an "all purpose" camera.....land or water. Has virtually all the settings as my much more expensive digital SLR. We bought one to take on a cruise in October 2013. It was perfect. Only down side is when the battery goes, it goes FAST..... suggestion would be to purchase extra batteries + charger enabling you to have spares all the time.

By filming, I assume you mean either video or old film SLR cameras. In either case, the answer is probably no.

I would think that this is suitable for a point and shoot camera, but not a heavier SLR

No it is not,but for the price I feel that the quality of the photos is pretty darn good.

No, I'm sorry! This camera is an SLR, not a DSLR, meaning that it is a film camera. Unfortunately, you have to manually load film into the camera, purchased separately, take the pictures and then used a darkroom to remove the roll of film, process the negatives with chemicals, dry them, shine light through them onto photo paper, and then process that paper in chemicals to make a print. It's quite a process, and I bought this camera for a Photography class in college. Now I'm in Photo IV, and I love this camera and the photo printing process, it's wonderful fun and a great hobby :)

Yes it is, I have purchased two myself and believe they are the original equipment item with the camera.

As far as I know it is. It looks and works like a legit Canon. I've used it several times since purchasing and, as of now, have no regrets. I would buy this product again.

Thank you very much for your input. Can you tell me what IMHO and SLR stand for?
