Mirrorless vs regular cameras... Opinion
When you change to shooting a mirrorless camera, you already know you're a better photographer.

Sure, why wouldn't it?
My father could only afford an el cheapo fixed lens rangefinder (I think he bought it for $80 or so brand new in 63) and when he let me use it he kept talking about how he would love to have a camera with mirror.
And so when I grew up I bought cameras with mirror in them.
The age of the DSLR is over. The time of the MILC has come!
All the technical so called 'advancements' are interesting but no one has mentioned the output.
I consider the actual photo that a camera produces the most important factor.
I enjoy many of the advantages of a little Panasonic LX100II, mainly its convenience and pretty good pics it can produce, but for some reason the real pleasure I now get from making pictures is from using the less 'convenient' Nikon D750.
Mirrorless is just the latest step in the evolution of cameras. Doesnt mean everyone is going to, or should adopt it and become an evangelist.
You can never reach the future by looking into mirrors.
My bridge camera is mirrorless.
Does that count?
Mirrorless cameras are a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. Images captured from behind a mirror are cold, heartless and uncaring.

So I'll up the color temperature.....
The newer "mirrorless cameras" are not better because of being mirrorless but because of the overall new camera technology, some of it is because of the space in the camera without the mirror mechanism being removed. But, it is an overall up grade.
OMG --
The cost of all those mirrorless L-Primes not to mention what they are now charging for the L- zooms
There are three classes of photographers: those that see the importance of mirrorless cameras and everyone else.

Amazing how that works, eh?
I've never had a DSLR. A couple SLRs and a bag of lenses was enough with the mirror.
With high speed sports or nature photography, when the subject is moving towards or away from you a mirrorless camera will focus continuously until the image is recorded. A DSLR stops focusing as soon as the mirror begins its trip, and before the image is recorded. Not a big deal in a static setting, but if you're behind the goal that fraction of a second between the time when the focusing stops and the image is captured is the difference between a sharp image and a slightly soft one. The keeper rate in these cases goes WAY up with mirrorless cameras.
