Apple iPad 2 Camera Quality Test & Photo Booth App Review
There were always whispers concerning the fact that the first generation iPad did not include a camera, while other competing tablets boasted two cameras. With the announcement of the iPad 2, Apple silenced the whispers about the iPad's lack of hardware as opposed to the competition. The iPad 2 feature's a front facing VGA quality camera, and a rear facing High Definition camera. It has become apparent that the camera quality of the "HD" camera isn't as great as the quality of the iPhone 4's HD camera. Nevertheless, it is an HD camera of 'noteworthy' quality (video below).
In addition to the two new cameras for the iPad 2, Apple also unveiled their popular Photo Booth app that would be included in iOS 4.3. Photo Booth has been available for Mac's with iSight camera's for the past few years. With the addition of Photo Booth for the iPad 2, Apple continues to make a majority of their Apps universal between their Mac's and iOS devices.
In these two videos, I provide a quick look at the video and audio quality of the iPad 2's front and rear facing camera's. As well as a review of the Photo Booth App included in the iPad's iOS 4.3 software.
