The Saturday Shout gives you the opportunity to voice your opinion and vent your spleen about a hot photography topic. This week focuses on the digital SLR vs advanced compact camera debate. Some digital camera companies are increasingly focusing on DSLRs and moving away from compact digicams. Digital SLR cameras are quickly becoming cheaper, with more features at a lower price than ever before. On the other hand, advanced compact cameras offer an all-in-one solution, sometimes with huge zoom lenses, and they are often promoted as a genuine alternative to a digital SLR.

So which one would you buy, why would you buy it, and which specific models would you recommend? Shout out now…
