is the picture quality as good as a dslr ?

well... No because the resolution or the sensor of a cellphone camera is not the same as a Reflex camera

The D4 is a very good camera. The D4s is slightly better at high ISOs. Its seem to track focus on moving subjects a bit faster. Go to DXO website and they do a great comparison on cameras and you can compare the two cameras. The picture quality is the same I think over all again with some improvement at high ISOs. I do not know what you shoot or how you photograph so it is very hard to give advice on upgrading. If I had to do it again, I think I would stay with the D4 and which I still use right along with the D4s and wait for the next big change in camera bodies.

The camera is a good camera for close ups and distance....the resolution is amazing!

Yes, the indoor photos are pretty good, not SLR, but better than a smartphone. It is a nice all around camera.

Yes, it is. And the videos are pretty decent. For a minimum investment, this camera is very good.

The camera outputs 1080p, but no camcorder in this segment gets close to that in effective resolution. I find the picture reasonably good, but in terms of sharpness, an entry level canon dslr with movie mode will knock its socks off. But,and there is a big but, that comes at the expense of all the other issues you will have in terms of doing the filming with a dslr, like manual focusing (most models), audio recording (poor mic and level adjustments), panning (rolling shutter), ++.For home video, shooting kids in action, this camera is as good as it gets for the price in my opinion.

Depends on what you quantify as high quality? It does take excellent photographs, my wife uses it as a P&S; camera. Very nice. Warranty 1yr.

Image quality is at least as good if not better. That being said, the mk3 is clearly a better camera if you value ease of use, battery life, and a body and fits nicely in your hands.

Yes, the image is very clear. The camera you select will also influence image quality.

Yes, I like the camera very much. I find the menus easy to use and it takes great pictures. I have taken some outdoor shots with a tripod in low light and find the results to be very good for a point and shoot camera. As far as uploads, I don't know. I use Linux on my computers and the utilities are for Windows and I suspect Mac. I pull the pictures from the memory card with a card reader. This Sony support page has manuals for download. You should be able to find the answers there. http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=DSCWX300R&template_id=1&region_id=1&tab=manuals#/manualsTab

Yes, you can get pretty good pics under low light conditions. I've tried similar cameras, and I didn't get better quality pics than the ones I've got from the WX50.

Absolutely! The pictures come out outstanding! I've had 3 cameras before this one and I wouldn't go to anything else :) it's awesome!

Yes the picture quality is quite acceptable. It works the other way too - a Sony still picture camera with a high resolution image capture takes surprisingly great HD video!

low light recording is good as long as you do not zoom. The bigger the aperture of the lens the better quality of the picture

I too looked at both of these cameras before purchasing the D5000. this is my first dSLR and don't have much to compare it to but I have been very happy with the quality of the images it takes and it is very easy to use. I thought the canon and nikon specs and reviews looked extremely comparable and that you would be getting a similar quality camera from both companies. I decided to go with the Nikon basically because it was $50 cheaper and used the savings to buy a memory card. whichever way you go you will be getting a big step up from a standard point and shoot camera (I had previously been using a Canon SD750) I too looked at both of these cameras before purchasing the D5000. this is my first dSLR and don't have much to compare it to but I have been very happy with the quality of the images it takes and it is very easy to use.

Yes, it is wonderful. High end features without extreme complication. You can add features as you desire or feel comfortable and also just use as a better point and shoot with better resolution and low-light response than you ever will see in a point and shoot.
