  You've got to be a bit more specific James. How about picking two specific 35mm camera systems to compare.

1-interchangeable lenses usually.
2-more versatile
3-wide range of lenses choices
4-you get to see in viewfinder the same as what's going to be on film, versus point and shoot with lens in one spot, and viewfinder up and to the left
5-range of shutter speeds 30sec to 1/4000 for some, greater for others
6-if you need autofocus, slr's are faster
7-available lenses are much better quality
8-auto exposure, manual ex.,multi ex.
9-work's better with separate flash as in studio, most point and shoots don't have hotshoe or way to connect
10-more accesories like filters and what not.

Could be other stuff, but I got a soccer game to go to.
