They come with bigger sensors than a p&s, better/bigger lenses, a good zoom range, build in stabilisation and usually you can turn them to manual mode, too. They do not offer all the freedom of a DSLR system, but I think they will get you very decent photos for a cheaper price. And it might be a good option to take some steps into manual, without the guilt having spent tons of moneys on features you rarely use.
I agree - I have what Canon calls a Prosumer camera
This is the one I have but I'm sure there are others out there as well http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerSho...5878419&sr=8-1
