Anyone that thinks that their point and shoot camera can take as good pictures as Valk's camera had best look at the size of the sensors on Valks camera compared to the one on their camera.
This is the major drawback with this type of camera, we will not even mention their cheap lenses made from recycled Coke bottles - joke.
Valks camera has the DX size sensor, point and shoots have at best the 1/2.5 - the smallest on the chart. The size determines the quantity of information gathered in the photo.

He has absolutely no excuse for poor photos now.

This chart came from Wikipedia.
