Today I will be comparing the two so I thought I would put some brief notes on my blog.
Regular Point and Shoot Camera:
Pros:
small size
very portable
inexpensive
most have low quality video
Cons:
slow shutter speed
not many options
cant change lenses
not good for long distance or sports pictures IMO
SLR:
Pros:
Can change lenses
Different Shutter speeds
Many options
Cons:
large – won’t fit into your pocket or purse
Expensive – some lenses can cost 1000’s of $$
