Phone Cameras to Replace DSLR Cameras in the Near Future?

There’s no denying that mobile phone cameras are getting more and more popular, the megapixels are rising (to take up more of your memory space with each picture), they usually come with popular camera features such as face recognition and smile capture, and some even boasts a high end camera lens, but do you agree with Anssi Vanjoki, a sales chief in Nokia, that DSLR cameras will become a thing of the past because of the fast development of mobile phone cameras? On Tuesday, the sales chief of Nokia said that smartphones with the ability to record HD videos will be commonly available within 12 months and these handsets will also come with HDMI output. Sure hand phone cameras may be able to record high definition videos (720p with a poor autofocus that cannot refocus again once it has started recording), but camera phones replacing DSLRs is just a dream that is too ambitious; after all, DSLR cameras are not rated by the ability to capture HD videos.
