The medium sized (smaller than a SLR, larger than a credit card) digital cameras are useful, but they have their limitations. These next two photos were taken with a Canon A95 Powershot, vintage 2004.
The top film speed of the camera is ASA 400. That means sometimes you have to use flash if you have no decent way of steadying the camera. Here, with a black cat like Teddy and a dark-green cat bed, there was no choice, which results in "laser eyes".
The next area that can screw you up is the autofocus. It is faster in many situations than using the focusing window on the LCD screen to try and focus manually, but notice where the camera focused the shot. It wasn't focused on the exterior of the cat condo, nor on Gracie, but on the back inside wall of the cat condo. If what I wanted was to see the striations of the inside of a corrugated paper box, it worked fine.
I presume a decent SLR would have done better, but SLRs are not good for "wow, I ought to grab that shot."

That's a fancy-ass motherfucking cat bed!
True, that's some mighty fancy corrugation there.
