>From this definition
A single-lens reflex camera (SLR) typically uses a mirror and prism system
(hence "reflex", from the mirror's reflection) that permits the photographer to
view through the lens and see exactly what will be captured.
Source: Wiki
I see there used to be a mirror (been a long time user too). But the main point
is that it " permits the photographer to view through the lens and see exactly
what will be captured ".
I was a one time user of RFs, and all I could see was the lens through the VF
(the fuji X-Pro included) ;-)
So from the definition and the purpose of the nowobsolete technology, any
camera offering more than that is a bonus and qualifies for me, note that I
wrote for me, as a DSLR, be it mirrorless or not ;-)
