Benefits of more expensive pedals?

Currently I'm riding with Shimano pd-r540 pedals, and have used the since I got my bike. I haven't had any problems with them and they seem to work pretty well. Lately I have been researching Look pedals and was wondering if there are any noticeable benefits to a more expensive pedal besides weight? Is the platform for clipping more accessible? Sometimes I have a hard time getting my left foot in the right position and have to look down to reclip. I know weight of the pedal is always a factor, but I'm not really concerned with that too much. Just wondering if a higher grade pedal will give me more power or make any noticeable difference to my rides.
