Make sure you check out the prices of weathersealed lenses. A weathersealed body isn't unless you use weathersealed lenses too. They aren't cheap.

How can you really end up taking a worse photo with an SLR compared to a point and shoot? Just make sure your SLR is in auto mode and it just becomes a point and shoot with a much larger sensor.
