Well it's not a DSLR because it's missing the reflex in the "R". For the camera to be a DSLR there would need to be an optical viewfinder and a mirror that swings up and away when the photo is snapped. This is a point and shoot with DSLR lenses. Sony is misrepresenting what this really is. It's still cool as hell though.
