During the recent Twestival at the Vancouver Lookout, I played around with the iPad 2 camera and photobooth using the kalidescope mode.
I think the results turned out pretty cool, if not a little Inception-esque. Being on top of Vancouver probably helped too:
The Seabus couldn’t escape either:
Even night shots turned out pretty interesting:
A little low resolution but interesting art nonetheless.
I get asked multiple times a day about getting an iPhone and using it in Canada. It was always fun to help friends unlock their iPhones. Until now. Ever since the 1.1.2 firmware made it’s appearance (around build week 45 for those keeping score), there hasn’t been a working software unlock for these phones. You…
A week from now, it’ll be old news. We’ll know what Steve has up his sleeve and (hopefully) us Canadians will be activating our shiny new iPhones on the updated iTunes that was released. June 9th is fast approaching and so are the rumours swirling around the next version of the iPhone. I won’t be…
Over the past two weekends, I was invited up to Whistler to take in the Telus World Ski & Snowboard Festival. I had heard of the festival through friends that are avid snowboarders but had no idea that so many other things happen around the event. The first weekend, as a guest of the fantastic…
Erica’s at it again with a cool app for customizing your carrier name text on the go. She’s created “Make it mine” which let’s you change the text on the iPhone itself without having to hack any files. This is great for people like me that was annoyed with the “Rogers Wireless” carrier name that…
I just got back from my shortest trip to Hawaii ever…just four days. My pal, Marc Smith, invited me to tag along while he was on the last island (the big island of Hawaii) of his 30 Day Adventures in Hawaii. I’ve been to Hawaii many times but this was the first time back to Kona since I first visited 20 years ago. Fortunately for me, one of the events on his agenda was the 2014 Kona Brewers Festival. Because beer…in Hawaii.

Sorry, John. I played around with the still camera front and back. I wouldn’t really call it much of a camera. I’m quite impressed by the weight and thickness, white is sexy, speed seems marginally faster (at least in GarageBand). Gonna have to wait to see what they do next time!
I completely agree the cameras are very weak on the iPad 2 and confirms my initial thoughts that they are an unnecessary thing except for maybe FaceTime but even then, despite being thinner/lighter, I wouldn’t want to hold it for long during a video chat. I just had a little fun with them regardless but until they are higher resolution, won’t see much use by me.
