The Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom was announced a little over a week ago and today I got some hands-on time with the device, which is almost as much of a camera, as it is a phone.

Film's not dead yet, but there's no denying that it's ailing. Every couple of months we hear of film manufacturers cutting back on their productions slightly, killing off more film types, and Kodak has even stopped making the acetate plastic that forms the base of the company's film.

So while plenty of us still...

 

 

G-Star Raw is an extremely fashionable (and more than a little expensive) brand of designer denim, that's made a bit of a reputation for itself with crossovers and collaborations outside of the world of fashion. The company's newest team-up is with Leica, and while it gives the Leica D-Lux 6 a rather nice new look,...

BuzzFeed is something of an unstoppable juggernaut of viral media, encouraging users to share the site's posts all across social media.
