Yes, mine is a Nikon L120 and it certainly takes better pics than the phone cam. Still to learn all the bells and whistles though. :)
wasn't referring to phone cams. the older ones are indeed awful. but newer ones are actually ok. 4mp minimum is an absolute must. a lot of older phone cams were below that and had awful lenses. but my iphone at 8, with decent lens is actually ok.

I'm talking more about cheap and cheerful compacts vs. pricey DSLRs.
A talented photographer using a bog standard compact could wipe the floor with your average photographer using a £4000 DSLR. Photography is about skill in my opinion not gear.
