Dedicated or not dedicated digital imaging device for photomicrography?

Well, this is a question many users are asking themselves. I can read about
it in this group, the Yahoo group "Microscope" and many other places.
I am interested in your experience. Did you use a consumer grade digital
camera (such as a DSLR or a P&S (point and shoot) digicam) mounted to a
compound microscope and were you able to compare its image quality with
images obtained with some expensive gear? I think we all agree that
dedicated cameras truly outperform their "consumer grade" siblings when it
comes to workflow efficiency, better calibration possibilities, and better
light sensitivity for low-light applications (e.g. fluorescence microscopy).
But let's focus on our good old brightfield application for the moment. Did
you find a measurable difference in image quality when comparing a dedicated
imaging device with a non-dedicated one (such as DSLR or P&S)? If so, what
was the models you compared?
