I don’t have much money to spare, but I’m thinking of getting a camera. The thing is: Should I buy an average digital camera for Rs 15-20K or should I buy a normal camera that costs as much, but will probably give me better quality pictures?

Lives in Karnataka. Learnt German. And is now learning French. Leaving me quite impressed. Indians I think tend to be multilingual, by and large. In school, we had to learn three languages.

I can understand a bit of Marathi (but then they hardly speak the language in Mumbai). And I can understand Bengali, but I can’t speak it very well. Next on my ‘to-do’ list is …
