The more expensive and "professional" cameras have higher resolution and a larger base format so that when you blow up the pictures (such as to frame) the picture doesn't get all grainy and blurry. They also have interchangeable lenses for varied shooting options. Those are the primary differences. Oh, did I mention that the pro cameras are very expensive.
