Primer: Mirrorless / Compact System Cameras
Digital Photography Review &bull Dec 15, 2011
The eternal question, 'What camera should I buy?' Previously it was a fairly simple decision - you bought a DSLR if you were most concerned about image quality, operational speed and taking control of what the camera did, or you bought one of the various sub-types of small-sensored compact camera if you prioritized pocketability, ease-of-use, price or zoom range. There were some attempts to bridge the gap - superzoom compacts and high-end enthusiast models often offered extensive manual controls - but there was no real middle ground.

Compact cameras for advanced shooters (roundup)
Gadget Posts on News Blog &bull Dec 15, 2011
The compromise is a compact camera with a sensor larger than a typical point-and-shoot--sometimes even the same size as a consumer or midrange dSLR--and sufficient manual control over aperture and shutter speed to allow for a measure of the creativity to which you're accustomed.
