It appears Apple is planning to greatly improve the quality of iPhone selfies. Code found in iOS 9 suggests that the next iPhone may offer a much more powerful front-facing camera -- one that features 1080p video, 240fps slow-mo, and a flash/light.
One of the big gripes people have with the idea of taking pictures with Google Glass camera glasses is that the device requires you to say "ok, glass, take a picture" in order to snap a shot. While this is great for situations when you need hands-free photography and don't mind saying a voice command, it would be highly inconvenient in situations in which you would rather not (or can't) talk.
It looks like Google has been one step ahead of us the whole time: it appears that the company has built "wink to snap" functionality into Google Glass' camera.
Starting today, you can download a free and legal copy of Photoshop. That's right -- free and legal. There's a catch, though: it's the original 1.0.1 version of the program that was released back in 1990.
Samsung released the open source kernel files for its new Galaxy Camera late last week, something commonly done in the smartphone world -- at least with certain platforms -- but a foreign concept in the world of digital photography.

Developers are already talking about the possibility of introducing voice calling to the camera -- a feature Samsung left out of the camera, presumably to avoid cannibalizing its smartphones.
