I picked a random shot from our trip to the zoo today, and I've uploaded it as it came off the camera, so it's about 3mb (I assume that's the only way to really consider it properly?)
It's not a great shot at all, but what I'm interested in is having the technical shortcomings of compact's rather small and reasonably high mp sensors exposed by those who actually have have an understanding of this area, in a real live photo
Taken with the gf's Sony DSC-W35 (7.2mp).

From my fairly uninformed viewpoint, it doesn't seem as nearly as punchy and crisp as the stuff my D80 puts out, but that doesn't surprise me, as the D80 has much larger sensor, and the 18-135mm Nikkor would be vastly better optically than the 'Zeiss' P) optics on the W-35
EDIT: I've also noticed some kinda orange fringing on the edge of dark objects that have a light background behind them, when looking the pic at 100% zoom...
