& no i'm not talking about a DSLR, I'm talking about an advanced point and shoot
Answer
control
On an advanced one you can set Apperture/Exposure Time and have access to more settings. Also usually the lens is of better quality and overall it is just naturally the better choicel
But it mainly control, being able to make the picture as YOU want it. On most compacts it is push a button and voila picture. But all automatic! On an advanced model you can say "Keep the apperture wide" for that portrait effect.
There is nothing wrong with things going automatic and in 90% of the cases it makes very decent choices. But sometimes you need control you need to say the camera what to do.
As they say on a sunny day every camera performs without trouble. But when the going gets though, it gets dark or you have to catch movement. Maybe your pet is doing cute things and well it isn't as if the cage is standing outside in the sun. Well then automatic modes can become a bit confused! Trust me how many times I haven't gotten the metal bars on the picture instead of the rat. The auto focus just didn't make it.
So really it is control.

How do I shoot photos through the fence/gate/cages at the zoo?
Serabi
I have a Canon EOS Rebel XS and I just enrolled in a photography class in college. I thought the zoo would be a great place to start, but when I see the Big Cats, they're enclosed in large cages and I cannot figure out how to keep the chain links out of the photo. Is there a certain setting that the camera needs to be on or something? Or is the camera itself not well enough of a quality?
Any recommendations would be appreciated...even if you suggest that I should try a different DSLR, filter, lens, etc.
Answer
Put your camera on manual focus and use a fairly large aperture, like f/4 or f/2.8. Focus on the cat and the fence will fuzz out of focus a bit. It won't magically become invisible, but maybe it will be enough.
