One point of interest is that Nikon and Canon, the giants of DSLRs, were very resistant to do mirrorless, even as Sony, Fuji and Olympus went down that way. They are now going into mirrorless big time. Part of it I guess is that the technology got better, but also oh what an excuse to sell everyone their lenses again! You can use adapters on older lenses, but usually with some (minor) loss of optical quality, and more clunkiness - bit like with dongles I guess! Old DSLR lines are also being phased out, making sure all the pros move sooner or later. What the article doesn’t mention in full is that there are now new independent makers of lenses. These are often (not always) inferior optically, often don’t have autofocus etc but are much more affordable than branded equivalents. Interestingly, even there you find they evolve out of cheap and cheerful to quality for a price! Samyang comes to mind first and foremost.
