>>109305 >Bridge cameras are still smaller and lighter than SLRs and have a much quieter shutter. Both sensor sizes have their role, just like both 135, medium format, and large format have their role. Not small enough for it to matter. I can't fit one in my pocket. It's still really heavy to carry around all day. When I'm using one, it's extremely obvious.
I'm not arguing against smaller-than-SLR sensor sizes. I'm just saying that, if you're going to make a camera with a tiny sensor, you should put it in a body to match.
If you want something that handles like an SLR, you can get an SLR for about the same price. If you want something quiet and discreet, a compact P&S will be just as quiet and a lot more discreet and a lot cheaper.
Bridge cameras combine the image quality (and, in a lot of cases, the poor controls) of a P&S with the inconvenient size and high price of an SLR.
