Further Development of SLR
Large format SLR• describes large photographic films, large
cameras, view cameras and processes that use a film or digital sensor, generally 4 x 5 inches or larger.
• have adjustable fronts and backs that allow the photographer to better control rendering of perspective and depth of field.

Medium format SLR
• cameras making use of sensors larger than that of a 35 mm film frame
• most widely used film size to a niche used by many professionals and some amateur enthusiasts

Medium format SLR• images of much higher resolution
can be produced• usually limited to professional
photography shops and very expensive

Advantages
• viewing and focusing the image through the attached lens
• provide photographers with precision and confidence
• no parallax error, and exact focus can be confirmed by eye
• very versatile

Disadvantages
• cannot be made as small or as light as other camera designs
• simple designs for wide angle lenses cannot be used
• SLR mirror 'blacks-out' the viewfinder image during the exposure
