DSLR stands for “Digital Single Lens Reflex”. In simple language, DSLR is a digital camera that uses mirrors to direct light from the lens to the viewfinder, which is a hole on the back of the camera that you look through to see what you are taking a picture of.

Digital Single Lens Reflex camera. A mirror will help you to see through the viewfinder. These cameras can be used for freezing the actions as well as creating 'motion' effect.

Go for Canon's EOS L-series lenses, if you are serious about wildlife photography - 200mm or above (with 1.6x factor for DSLRs, it becomes 320mm or higher) . Zoom lenses cause distortion, hence compromise on image quality - but provide greater flexibility compared to fixed focal length lenses. However, L-series lenses are very expensive, even though picture quality is unmatchable. For serious photography use a Canon 650D/700D or 7D body. EOS 1200D is good, but very basic and for beginners only
