Samsung is no stranger to teasing its fans (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/27/samsung-premiere-2013-galaxy-ativ/), and with expectations running high that it'll introduce a true cameraphone -- the Galaxy S 4 Zoom -- in London on June 20th, you'll have to forgive us for being more than curious for what's in store. We've already seen a hint of such a device (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/31/samsung-sm-c101-fcc/) at the FCC, but now it seems that we may be looking at the hybrid phone / camera in all its eyebrow-raising glory. Thanks to SamMobile andTechTastic, we're treated to purported renders and "in the wild" shots of the Galaxy S 4 Zoom, which line up with expectations that it'll be based on the Galaxy S 4 Mini (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/30/samsung-confirms-galaxy-s-4-mini/). If this is the real deal, in addition to similar specs, it seems that we can expect a dedicated shutter button on the righthand side, which is situated below a volume rocker that's said to activate the camera's optical zoom lens. On the opposing side of the cameraphone, you'll find a dedicated tripod mount. Could this be an intentional leak in response to a similar (http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/06/nokia-eos-rumor-leaked-images/) outing (http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/07/nokia-eos-video-shows-mechanical-shutter/) from Nokia? Only time will tell, but we hope to know for sure in the coming days.
