How to Use iPad 2 Video Cameras?

Some critics will tell you Apple's new iPad 2 isn't all that different from the original. As expected, the iPad 2 is thinner and lighter than the previous model, with the same basic size and shape. As rumored, it includes faster chips, but many consumers probably won't notice the difference. And, as has been long anticipated, it includes front and rear-facing cameras and Apple's FaceTime for iPad 2 video calling software.

Use iPad 2 Video Cameras to FaceTime

For faraway friends and family, long-distance relationships, or just for fun, FaceTime for iPad 2 is here. With a tap, you can make video calls from your iPad 2 to someone else's iPad 2, iPhone 4, new iPod touch, or Mac over Wi-Fi. And be there in person, even when you're not.

Use iPad 2 Video Cameras to Tap, talk, smile, and wave

Let's say you want to start a video call with your best friend. Just find her name in your Favorites list and tap the FaceTime button. An invitation pops up on her iPad 2, iPhone, iPod touch, or Mac asking if she wants to join you. When she accepts, the FaceTime call begins. Up pops her face right in front of yours and nearly life-size, on the big iPad 2 display. All you need is an Apple ID and an email address and you're good to go. It's even easier than picking up the phone.

Use iPad 2 Video Cameras to see and share with the back camera

iPad 2 has two built-in cameras, one on the front above the display and one on the back. You can switch between them anytime during a call. The front camera faces you, for saying hello. The back camera faces what's in front of you, for showing off where you are, who you're with, or what you just splurged on at the mall. And if something funny happens on your end, your friend can see it, too.
