One of the anticipated features on the iPad 2 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 iPad2
 * 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 iPad2.[[image:switchcamera.png width="188" height="79" 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)

Press the **“Capture Button”** located in the middle of the screen to take a picture. The capture button for still pictures looks like a camera. Pictures are placed in the picture library.

The red circle will blink when you are recording. Videos are placed in the Picture Library under “Camera Roll.”[[image:photolibrary2.png width="218" height="102" align="right"]]
