Instead, the mirrorless/DSLR differences are more subtle: In terms of image quality, there is no difference between Nikon’s DSLR and mirrorless FX cameras. However, they have such a long history of making DSLRs that the DSLR lineup is arguably more refined at this point. Right now, Nikon is pouring a ton of energy into its full-frame mirrorless lineup. Any current Nikon DX and FX camera has excellent image quality.

Taken at ISO 1250 with the Nikon D7000, a discontinued DX camera announced in 2010.
Those are just 6.2 × 4.6 mm in size (about the same as a smartphone, actually slightly bigger).Ĭompared to that, FX sensors are a whopping 30× larger in area.
That said, both DX and FX are much larger than Nikon’s point-and-shoot camera sensors. So, you’ll get better image quality with FX cameras. (As you can see, FX is about 1.53× larger per dimension, which results in an area of about 2.34× the size.) It’s why every current DSLR on the market will crush a smartphone in image quality. Sensor size determines image quality more than any other feature of the camera, especially something trivial like the number of megapixels. This simply refers to the camera’s sensor size. The first thing you need to know about Nikon cameras is that they are divided into two distinct groups: DX and FX.
