The most accurate color. As for the rest, you don't know what you are talking about. What are you doing, making a personal comentary, or demonstrating that you have an endless supply of money for film and developing chemicals. How much do you think a pro DSLR cost? How much do you think the lenes cost? Can you blow off shots on an impulse? How about 5 or 6 hundred shots. Can you do that?
Like they say, you pay for what you get. However, there is also the law of diminishing returns. Your best bet is to move into the middle of the price range. You?ll get the most bang for the buck there. The high end point and shoot will rival some of the lower end SLR. If you buy the cheapest camera, quality of the picture will just won?t be that good.
A lot of times I can tell from how sharp the pictures that it came from a lower end point and shoot digital versus my film SLR camera. The images are just far more sharper on my SLR because of the better quality lens. Though the lens itself cost more than a lot of point and shoot cameras.
Another thing is that most point and shoots have these enormous zoom capabilities. Most SLR lens? do not since it really defies the laws of physics of the optical system. Another problem with most point and shoots is that most do not have a very wide angle lens. They tend to start on the low end at 35-45mm range which is really not that wide of angle.
In general, the focusing mechanism on the low end point and shoot tend to be slow. Plus, with the point and shoot, you never really know if the picture is in focus since you are not actually looking through the lens. Yes, you can see from the back screen, but most of the times, I haven?t been really able to tell if it is really focused or not until I look at the pictures on a PC. With a SLR you are actually looking though the lens at the actual image.
