It's simple really. It's no longer about the art of photography. It's become all about camera technology.

What you usually see in some forums are technology geeks comparing equipment. Look at any PC forum and it's no different. CPU speed, bus speed, screen resolution, graphics processor etc. Example...

Problem

I want to produce a book report.

Technology

PC or Macbook
MS office, OpenOffice or iWork
14" or 21" screen, rotatable, dual monitor
Epson, Canon or HP printer
Automatic external backup
Voice dictaphone
etc. etc.
