If you want to upgrade down the line, then do it down the line with SLRs will be cheaper and better.

Why buy an NSX to take your driver's test?
Eh, that is a very good point.

This just needed to be quoted for posterity.

Seriously though, the prosumer cameras can offer a TON of functionality, just not the same flexibility of an SLR (because of the removable lenses.)

I don't have an SLR, and honestly I can't justify one. I have three cameras (one is more "entry level" and the other two are more prosumer and I have several thousand pics through EACH of them.

Expensive tools won't teach you how to build a house. They only help out the most skilled of carpenters. Learn how to be a photographer first THEN worry about better equipment.
It definitely makes sense. So I presume I just need to do some research on good Non-SLR camera's for now?
