Re: what a DSLR camera can't do

That is a better version of my point & shoot, RS. The controls are the same but mine hasn't got the stand out monitor. Which model is that one?

and one of these that miraculously tilts up or down, but won't go all the way up to selfie mode.

Re: what a DSLR camera can't do

I've had a Nikon Coolpix520 for a couple of years and I have very rarely taken out my Nikon DSLR since. The coolpix is smaller and lighter and has a 24-1000mm zoom (35mm equivalent) but what I find most useful is the rotating viewing screen. If you are in a crowd you can hold it above your head and see exactly what you are taking.

My Canon does - not that I ever use that facility.
