The Booq Slimpack is the perfect camera bag for minimalists

Add as a preferred source on Google

The Booq Slimpack is a hybrid camera and computer bag that will hold a DSLR camera, a few lenses, a 12″ MacBook, and accessories at the same time. It’s geared toward travel where you only need to bring essential equipment, and it’s extremely practical without being too complicated. The Slimpack definitely has a premium look to it, and when everything’s zipped up it has a streamlined profile. It uses a combination of recycled fabric and ballistic nylon that offers weatherproof protection, and there’s an included outer waterproof covering if needed.

We liked the easily accessible compartments on either side that are designed to store memory cards, camera batteries, and accessories. The main compartment is customize-able with dividers to manage your lenses and larger accessories. There’s a concealed flap that can be pulled out which will secure the foot of a tripod.That means only one strap is needed to mount a tripod to the outside.

At $195, the Booq Slimpack is a premium camera bag, and it’s very well thought-out. It offers sufficient protection for your expensive camera equipment, and it’s very practical without being overly complicated.

Google releases big v4.0 update for its popular Snapseed editing app on Android
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

After years of sitting on its hands, Google appears to have remembered it owns one of the best photo editing apps on mobile. Snapseed 4.0 is now rolling out to Android, bringing the platform up to speed after a stretch of iOS exclusivity that left Android users watching from the sidelines.

The story starts last June, when Google quietly broke Snapseed out of its long dormancy with a significant 3.0 update for iPhone. It was a surprise move that suggested the company was serious about the app again. Google then confirmed at the start of this year that Android wouldn't be left behind for long, and true to that word, the Play Store listing has now been updated to reflect version 4.0 — skipping straight past 3.0 for Android users and landing both platforms on the same version simultaneously.

Google has officially rolled out a new Touch Up suite inside its Photos app editor, integrating face retouching tools directly into the app for the first time. Previously, such adjustments were only available inside Google’s Camera app at the time of capture.
