Snachat Update Brings Two New features Chat and Here Live Video Calls
This week the ephemeral photo sharing service Snapchat saw a major update for its iOS app, which brought a new text messaging feature called “Chat,” and live video chat feature called "Here."
The new Chat feature in the app allows you to swipe right on a friend’s name in your Snapchat inbox to start text messaging, as messages in the chat screen are cleared upon leaving the window. In the conversation, you can start the live vedio chat by tapping and holding on the blue photo button. You can also switch between the front facing and rear facing camera using swipe up/down gesture respectively.
Snapchat’s last update was issued in October 2013 which brought a new "Snapchat Stories" news feed feature, and in late 2013 the company reportedly turned down a $4 billion acquisition offer from Google and a $3 billion offer from Facebook. The app in the past few months was know a security breach last December compromised the user names and phone numbers of more than 4.6 million customers.

Samsung NX500 new mirrorless camera with 28 megapixels and 4K video
Samsung has introduced its new Samsung NX500 mirrorless camera with a design and refined and stylized than the previous model year finishes. Not only that, the Samsung NX500 is loaded with advanced features, some of which borrows directly from the Samsung NX1, the flagship of the Korean company. It also improves connections, adding WiFi, Bluetooth and NFC, to enable us to transfer images and wireless mobile devices. One of its functions is the star of recording videos in 4K or UHD, and it does so with HEVC codec that compresses files respecting the image quality. The Samsung NX500 will come from next March in white, brown or black. We tell you all the details.
The Samsung NX500 brings some of the most advanced photo features Samsung in a more compact and manageable chassis. It has a weight of 287 grams (body only) and as we said come in three colors. Samsung has taken seriously the ergonomic elements such as non-slip grip for better grip or folding screen, which allows low-angle shooting and also serves to give us a good control selfie the frame. The panel is a Super AMOLED touch 3 inches with a resolution FVGA. The camera has no viewfinder, so that the frame has to be done through this piece. But let into the camera, we find a type backlit ASP-C sensor with a resolution of 28 megapixels and an image processor DRIMeV. Samsung says it is much faster than the previous model, improves color reproduction and reduced noise.
The system approach is hybrid Samsung NX500 comes with Samsung Auto Shot function, which detects motion in the scene to capture the image at the right time. Shoot Burst at a frequency of 9fps and allows the ISO sensitivity up to 51,200 although these levels the noise will be noticeable to the naked eye. How could it be otherwise, Samsung includes its smart mode, which automatically selects from a wide variety of settings to get the best picture. Some of the modes are Samsung NX500 Action Freeze, Beauty Face, fireworks, landscape, multi-exposure or panorama. As we advance, records videos in 4K and also has an option to create videos called Interval Time-Lapse Capture. He wears a HDMI connector and allows attach an external flash through the upper shoe. Wireless connections are WiFi, NFC and Bluetooth.
Samsung offers a very interesting proposal for photographers looking image quality and versatility without sacrificing the convenience of a compact chassis. Currently there are no details about the price you have in Spain, but in the United States will sell with 16-50 mm lens (f / 3.5-5.6) for $ 800, which is 700 euros at current exchange rates.

Apple iPhone 5S Slow Motion doesnt capture 720p Video
After all the hype around the so called Slow Motion video mode, it is time to see what it is worth.
The iPhone 5S does deliver slow motion 720p video at but the trick resides in its recording which is not set at 720p despite the new A7 chip.
Here is how it is done.
GsmArena has compared 720p footage from a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 to the iPhone 5S when its recorded Slo-Mo video, allegedly at 720p resolution as well. The result is stunning and evidently something is missing from the Apple flagship.
The next shooting was realized at 480p from the Note 3 and then the video was upscaled to 720p. This time, the devices play at the same level.
GsmArena has also release the full frames from the shooting. From left to right : the iPhones 5S, the Note 3 at 720p and the Note 3 at 480p upscaled to 720p :
The shooting capability is not as good as advertised. From viewing videos on your iPhones small screen, it might not be that obvious but when you watch them from your computer or TV, well, that is another story.
But the iPhone 5S video Slo-Mo has a main flow because when you extract those videos, they will be played at 120 fps, so in case you cant slow the videos on your TV, you wont actually see slow motions footages. On your computer, play videos 4X slower to get the trick done.
It sure would have been nice if Apple had managed to make the iPhone 5S outputs slow motion videos at 30 fps processing the change from 120 fps within the device.
