Capture Photos
and Video
The iPad
includes two built-in cameras for capturing photos and video:
one mounted on the back and one at the front. I'll be upfront and say
that they aren't spectacular cameras: The rear-facing one captures
720p HD video, but only 0.7-megapixel stills; the front-facing one
captures VGA 640 by 480-resolution video and stills.

And yet, specifications quickly lose their importance when you're video-
chatting with a friend in another city, or you're capturing a photo or
video that you otherwise might have missed. Specs will improve over
time, but events happen now.
