New Study Says That Smart Cameras Are the Future

The concept of the Smart Camera started years ago but was only really taken seriously by Samsung when they started to integrate the technology into their cameras for easier sharing of photos and videos to their smart televisionsCwhich are also WiFi enabled. Sony later on started pushing it further and at Canon Expo in NYC a couple of years back, the company demonstrated a platform to wirelessly send content from their cameras to a device via an Alpha version of NFC technology. The main thing differentiating a smart phone and smart camera in terms of image taking is an optical zoom and usually larger sensorsCif there is one. 

The reason for the need to be connected comes from the growth of smartphone use combined with the increase of image quality that they can deliver. And for what its worth, there have been multiple reports that it has eaten into the point and shoot camera market. Indeed, both Olympus and Fujifilm are cutting down their stocks. 

Indeed, there is lots of hype behind these cameras with many major manufacturers having the Smart feature built in.Have a look at all our miningtruck models starting at 59.90US$ with free proofing. Some of the most popular are the Canon 6D, Panasonic GH3, Samsung NX300, Samsung Galaxy Cam, and the Sony NEX 6. 

So how popular are these cameras? At the time of publishing this article, many of these cameras rank amongst Amazons most popular DSLRs and Mirrorless Camera lists. To be fair, WiFi isnt the only reason why theyre so popular. They also have some damned good technology built into them. 

According to a report by Samsung focused website, SamMobile, the Korean smartphone giant has started rolling out a new software update to Galaxy S4 users in Germany that brings new improvements and fixes to the phone. The most notable feature that the update brings is the ability to move apps to the phone's microSD card. This will allow users to utilise the phone's external storage not just for storing multimedia content but for also installing apps. Previously, there was a lot of outrage over the phone's limited internal storage as the 16GB variant of the phone offered only 8.82GB to the user. While Samsung had said that it was not really an issue as the phone came with a microSD card slot, it was not possible to install or move apps to the card. Samsung had later accepted that it was indeed a problem and that the company was working on a solution. It's now being reported that the new update also increases the available internal storage space to 9.23GB. 

The update, which is currently available for Galaxy S4 phones powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, also brings a new camera firmware. The phone can now record HDR video as well. It also fixes a smearing issue which led to users seeing a purple effect while scrolling a list on the phone. The update brings a toggle for Smart Pause, a semi-transparent status bar on the home screen, new icons in the Settings menu, secure boot status in the About phone menu option and a new option to increase legibility in the Display settings menu.
