IPad Video camera

My sister is getting my dad a new IPad with the camera to replace the one she got him, without camera, last Christmas. She wants him to be able
to have video conferencing with family members around the country. We usually do this with Dell computers and external cameras. Will he be able to
video connect with non apple hardware used by others in the family. She assumed this setup would work and purchased an IPAD 2 for a Christmas
gift.

Hrwsuperpop-
Yes, but it may depend on the program used. The Skype App works on either the iPad 1 or 2. Of course the iPad 1 has no camera, but you can see the other party! I have not tried conferencing but it works for two-party calls.
I have not tried other Apps, but if there is one to match the program your family is using, it should work.

IPad video camera has no sound

iPad video camera has no sound

Found the fix.
If the reboot doesn't fix it.
If the headphoens work find, but no external speakers.
If the double-click and page right to the software mute, doesn't show the sound knob - just the brightness
If your pop-up shows "Docking Station"
Then, the problem is very likely a dirty connector. The iPad/iPhone/iPod connector uses a resistor value to determine if the device is connected to an external 'speaker'. There are a range of resistances, for a range of products. This is known as the Connector Pin 21 issue.
Take some windex on a que-tip, or perhaps a Windex paper scrub and rub it on the bottom connector port. Somehow, "something" has gotten on those contacts, and it is pulling the voltage on pin #21 down - so that the iPad "thinks" it's connected to an external speaker - this will disable the internal speaker circuitry, as well as the internal speaker volume controls.
Do not over-saturate and short out your iPad. Do not throw it in the sink, do not use the kitchen faucet to flush it out. A Que-tip with a few drops of Windex (or other gentle cleaner) should work just fine. Takes all of 30 seconds - and magically, the volume knob appeared and everything worked just fine.

Does someone make a wide angle lense accessory for iPad video camera?

Would like to widen iPad video camera perspective when using Skype app. Looking for aftermarket product like Phocus, but for iPad video camera. Anything out there or do I need to develop a start-up myself?

There are a number of lens kits available that will work on the iPad, but I've never seen one that will work on the forward lense (which is what I assum you are looking for). Doesn't mean there isn't one however.

What is the New IPad 3 camera's video bitrate?

i.e. What is the file size per min of recorded HD video using the iPad camera?
Thanks.

I'm not interested in what video spec the ipad can play.
I'm interested in the iPad video camera's recording spec. When using the iPad camera to record HD video, what is the file size generated for a given duration, say, 1min.
When one considers choosing 16GB or 64GB version, and plan on using the ipad to record video, surely that is a valid consideration.. no?
Apple may not made the information available, but at least in a forum like this, those who owns an iPad 3 and is helpful enough might just look at the video that they have taken before and downloaded to computer, and maybe advise on the file size and duration..
Pointing to official spec site isn't going to help. If the information is there, I would not have needed to ask in a forum (ok, there are people who ask questions without doing a serach first, but I have already searched many places but could not find the anwser). But thanks anyway for those who replied..

How can I connect my Powerbook or iPad Retina via HDMI cable to 4K digital video camera to be a "control monitor"

That won't work with the iPad, unless maybe there's a "control monitor" app somewhere.

How can I import an mp4 file from my video camera into my iPad ?

I'm totally new to this iPad world. I would like to import a file from my video camera to edit it in iMovies. I tried adding the file through iTunes, and it appeared to transfer the file to my iPad, but I can't find any way to open the file, not even to play it. Any help would be appreciated.

The time should already be shown on the status bar, but you can't add the day and/or date to it - if you would like to have them then you coul leave feedback for Apple : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
If you want to copy an attachment from an email then you can't do that directly from the Mail app. If the email is still on your provider's server then you should be able to read the email on your provider's site via a browser on your computer and save it from there directly on your computer. Otherwise you will need to copy the file from the Mail app to another app on your iPad via the 'open in' function. Do you have an app on your iPad that supports the type of file that you want to copy ? How you then copy the file to your computer will depend upon what the app that you copy it to supports - different apps have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via your wifi network, dropbox etc

Is it possible to sey up my iPad as a video camera and broadcast it real time to a TV via Apple TV?

Use airplay to send what is on the iPad to your tv.
Since ipad2, you can display exactly what is on the ipad screento a tv via an adaper or via airplay through an apple TV.

I have a JVC video camera and it records the video to a .mod format (which Apple devices don't support). I figured out how to get them to iPhoto using iMovie but I want to be able to get the videos on my iPad 2 but it won't let it sync. Any help?

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

I'm looking at buying an IPad and was wondering if it has the capacity to replace a video camera.

I'm looking at buying an IPad and was wondering if it has the capacity to replace a video camera. I'm looking at the 128GB version and I know there are many variables. But I'm thinking that it should hold at least 60 mintues of video before needing it to be downloaded. Thoughts?

If you want to record good video, get a camera.
iPads can record video but they lack almost all other useful features of a dedicated camera - eg a decent lens, the ability to zoom, reasonable audio, removable media, small form factor .... and on and on.

Ipad mini - video camera

Any way to turn the ipad mini video camera on/off with a remote while doing video interviews? Thanks.

Plugging in flip video camera to ipad

When plugging in flip video camera to ipad it says "accessory uses too much power." Is there a way to do this to download videos on to my ipad to free up space on the flip video camera so I can shoot more videos with it?
Thanks for all answers!

It says it is a Ultra HD with 4gb of storage for one hour of video. I would not have bought it if Costco wasn't blowing them out for $80. I am taking a trip to India and wanted to be able to leave my Sony handicam at home as this is much smaller and seems adequate for my needs. Thanks for all the responses. I read I might be able to use a powered USB hub in order to get it connected but haven't tried that yet. I have one but not at home it is in my studio so I will have to wait and see. Trip is not for another 2 weeks so I will give that a try.

IPad camera connector and Video cameras

Anyone has connected a video camera to the iPad through the camera connector and transferred videos?
Or transferred videos from a digital camera or on the SD card to the iPad?
Just wondering if it can be done.

I have done it successfully. However, for it to work the file format of the photos and videos have be supported by the iPad. Not all are. I have a Panasonic Video camera and video format is not supported so the I can't import it. It dose however import stills fine. ALso, the file structure in the camera has to have the photos and videos in a folder titled "DCIM". I have an old camera that does not transfer since its folder is named differently.

When using video camera on iPad 3 screen keeps going in and out of focus

Every time I use my video camera the image goes in and out of focus making the blurry there seems to be no settings to stop this help.

At this point, I would go for reset to its factory default condition, using the iTunes program to get a clean system install. That way you'll clean everything out and just have it set up the way it would come from the factory. You'll need to do your backup (on the iTunes program too) and be sure you understand which stuff will be saved and which will not (from the links below). Also turn off any anti-virus program you may have on your desktop. Then when you reset it to the factory default condition, don't restore your backup just yet ... until you check it out without your data put back on it. Verify its operation first, to make sure that you know it's okay. Hopefully everything is okay at that point, otherwise you'll have to take it into Apple to check it out for any hardware failure.
