I\'m not saying that mirrorless isn\'t sapping sales from traditional DSLRs, I\'m just saying they aren\'t the only thing sapping sales away from DSLRs, nor is the mirrorless market made up entirely of people who would otherwise buy a DSLR.
I can only talk from my own personal experience here, but all photographers which I know and who switched or added a mirrorless camera came from a DSLR, most from Canon followed by second with Nikon gear. The majority went with a Sony A7 series camera, two switched to a Fuji mirrorless camera. I don\'t even know one case where somebody decided to get a mirrorless camera (of any kind) and just had a cellphone or P&S.
So long as major sporting events show a sea of white lens and DSLRs being used by the pro, the entry level will most like gravitate to DSLRs. Also, first-time buyers would, most likely buy at a camera store where most sales people are pushing what the pros use.
The Canon/Nikon entrenchment is deep and it will take time and considerable technology to unseat them. And then there\'s the possibility that both have fully developed mirrorless systems waiting for when the time is right!
Actually, this is not what I see at my local shop. They have a wide variety of mirrorless cameras.
They tried to lure me to the Sony a few times, in my local Henry\'s store.
