 * iPad's Built In Cameras [[image:frontcamera.png width="228" height="194" align="right" caption="Front Facing iPad Camera"]] **

One of the anticipated features on the newest ios devices was the addition of the camera--Apple went one better and gave users TWO cameras-- a front facing camera (640 x 480 VGA) for video conferencing and a higher quality (1280 x 720 HD) rear facing camera that can be used in a number of ways.

**Switching Cameras—front to back/back to front:**
 * Turn on your device
 * Locate the **Camera App** --you may have to slide across screens or run a search and tap it to begin using the built in cameras on your device.[[image:switchcamera.png align="right"]]
 * In the **top right corner,** you can switch from front camera to back camera **OR** back camera to front camera by tapping the **switch camera icon.**

Once you open the “Camera App” the **“Still Camera/Video** **Camera Slider**” will be located in the **lower right corner.** (the back camera takes higher quality pictures)

**Capturing Video**
 * Slide the **“Still Camera/Video Camera Slider”** to the right so that the bubble is below the video camera. (the back camera takes higher quality videos)
