Foul Ball Lands Right on iPad Camera

A lot of things can happen at a ball game. Yikes! In this instance a foul ball hits a guy right on his iPad, you could hear the smack! He should count his stars it could have been his ugly mug!

But the iPad camera took the blow real good. Using your iPad as a camera is a normal thing.. I guess for selfies and taking shots of high-speed ball pitches.

 

Instagram App Costume That Takes Real Instagram Pics

Photographer Eric Micotto dressed up as a walking Instagram app and amazingly, used an iPad as part of his costume. Now that's interactive!

He utilized a Nikon D800 camera for the front part of his Instgram logo and hooked up with an Eye-fi SD card and a portable wireless router. He then linked the Eye-fi card using the ShutterSnitch app on the iPad and set the iPad not go to sleep, so it was snap action ready for the party. The photos went straight up to Instagram as well.



Real cool for an Instgram costume to actually work like the real deal. And with the iPad's 10 hour battery life - that's one Helluva party!

Would You Take Photos with Your iPad Camera?

Would it be a hip idea going around taking pics with a large tablet held up over your face. Are people going around taking pics with their iPads? Maybe the hipsters, camwhores and the geeks are at it, but the general public?

Strike an awkward pose with your ipad camera!

No iPad camera love? Not yet, anyway. That trend is not there yet, but so far Apple has that in mind. Apple wants us to forego that point-and-click cameras and go for their stylish tablets with its built-in high-def retina display and 5-megapixel camera. You got 2 cameras on the iPad, the backside camera and the front camera. The backside camera being the preferred point-and-shoot option while the front side is the FaceTime video chat camera.

I don't think camera hobbyists would be keen on taking pics with their iPad. But for any layman on the go, why not just enjoy what Apple has to give?
