Photography
Two types of cameras available in the market now, "slim" digital cameras and "bulky" DSLR's. Cell Phone cameras don't count. It really does not matter how many mega pixels they manage to incorporate into cell phone cameras, they will always be second best to digital cams.
A cell phone camera with 5.0 megapixels will always come out second best to a, say, Canon digital camera which has only 4.0 megapixels. Similarly, an expensive Kodak 12.0 megapixel digital camera will never be as good as a DSLR with just 10.1 megapixels.
I've said this before, and I'll say it again...digital cameras are only good for "party pictures" and nothing else. Its meant for people who don't have much interest in photography and are quite content with "okay" looking pictures.
If you're a novice, and still want to learn how to take "wow" looking photos, buy a DSLR. True, it is quite expensive. True, it is a slightly complicated piece of hardware. True, it takes time to learn all its intricacies. But the first time you capture a breath taking sunset, or the pale mist on a cold winter morning, all the time and effort spent becomes worth it.

Cell phone cameras are kvlt!
@Loon
What does "kvlt" mean?
@beerandfries
Cheapest DSLR starts at Rs. 29k.
@agent zero
I sense a little sarcasm there. Just a little, mind you.
'kvlt' is just more kvlt way of saying 'cult'
