What Can An Advanced Digital Camera Do That A Regular Point And Shoot Can’t?

I can’t afford a dslr, so I’m thinking about getting an advanced digital camera. What can an advanced digital camera do that is similar to a dslr? And what can an advanced digital camera do that a regular digital point-and-shoot can’t? Thanks in advance.

    The advanced cameras will offer aperture priority, and shutter priority, and manual (ASM) modes. This allows you to control your camera to obtain certain artistic effects or shoot in difficult lighting conditions. Small P&S cameras usually don’t have the ASM modes, DSLR’s have ASM modes. The advanced P&S cameras usually have more zoom range over the small P&S cameras.
    The main difference between any P&S camera and a DSLR is the physical sensor size and interchangeable lenses. Due to sensor size, a dinky P&S and a advanced P&S won’t have much difference in image quality due to the small sensors. There is a noticeable difference between P&S and DSLR in image quality due to sensor size. Most DSLRs don’t have video mode or live view, but that is changing.

    the one thing that’s similar is that it still presents a picture. But there are multiple things that an advanced digital camera can do that a point and shoot can one of which is that they can zoom in automatically and u can upload the files to your computer and they almost always present u with a clear picture
