SLR IS the abbreviation, you moron!! It means Single Lens Reflex!!

single lens reflex

camera with one lens: a camera in which the light passes through one lens to the sensor and, by means of a mirror and prism system, to the focusing screen.

darn the beat me to it. SLR is "single lense reflex" which means the viewfinder looks through the lense through mirrors.

SLRs usually have more/better options in terms of different lenses... but that will depend on the camera.
