I’m confused about this. DSLR cameras are generally always more expensive than Point and shoot cameras. But why is it that DSLR cameras have a lower zoom range than P&S? For example, if a DSLR came with a 17-45mm lens (I’ve been told to divide 45/17 = 2.6x zoom) but some cheap P&S cameras have 5x zoom.
So does that mean P&S cameras can zoom further than DSLR?

When You Manual Focus, Does It Matter How Many Af Points A Dslr Has?
So I’m planning to get a DSLR next week, and I was wondering if it makes a difference if a DSLR has only 3 AF points [you probably know which camera I'm talking about].
If I’m using Manual Focus, do the Auto-Focus points matter? I know of other entry-level DSLRs that have at least 7 to 9 AF points,…Thanks.
