Is it possible to connect a wireless video camera to the ipad 2?

I've been sucessfully clearing the clutter from my Dashboard by using the ipad 2. I have all my music (goodbye satalite radio) and I have gps navigation (goodbye TomTom) and the laptop is no longer used on the road since the ipad is there. I would like to put a camera on the pack of my travel trailer to aide in backing and getting around tight spots, but I don't want another small screen on my dash. is there a camera that I can mount on the back of the trailer that can be wirelessly connected to the Ipad?

Doug-
I don't believe there is. If there was, there would also need to be an App that would provide the iPad's interface to the remote camera. I suggest you search the iTunes App store in case someone has such a system.

How far must you stand to record a person on video camera on the Ipad Air 2?

How far away must you stand to record a 6 foot person on a Ipad Air 2?

Experiment. Pick a wall near you, guestimate how tall 6 feet is (for me I can go about 8 inches above my head), step back until you get your whole 'person' in the frame.
I'm going to guess about 8 feet away, give or take. Of course anything beyond that you'll still have the whole person in the frame, just smaller.
However if you want them to speak and have the iPad's mic to pick it up well, the closer you are and quieter the room the better.

Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it works automatically with either macbook pro or iPad depending on which is turned on or do I have to go through the delete one and re-pair the other process every time?

Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it automatically connects to whichever previously paired device is turned on?

Is it possible to connect 2 Creative Web Cameras to one computer?

Hi all.
I want to connect 2 Web cameras to one computer and see li've video in two windows simultaneously. I have bought 2 identical LabTec Web Cameras, and when I connect to both cameras simultaneously the both video streams freezes.
Does anybody have any experience connecting 2 identical Creative Web cameras to one computer? Can they stream simultaneously without freezing?
I am planning to buy 2 Creative WebCam NX Pro, can they stream simultaneously without freezing?
Im using Windows XP SP2 and USB 2.0.
Regards,
Hemmingsen

Thank you for your reply!
I have tried to connect to different Web cameras to the same PC - and that worked!
I have tried to connect to identical LabTec Web cameras to the same PC - and that did NOT work!
It looks like it could be a driver problem.
I am working on a litte robot project and in connection to that, I need two identical cameras simultaneously to take 2 pictures. I that way I can analyse the 2 pictures and calculate the distance to objects. But the two pictures MUST be as identical as possible - therefore I want to use 2 identical cameras.
I would like if anybody who has 2 identical Creative Web cameras could do this little test:
1) Connect 2 identical Creative Web cameras to 2 different USB controllers (WebCam NX Pro preferred)
2) Open "My computer"/"WebCam "
3) Open "My computer"/"WebCam 2"
4) Check that both windows shows li've video simultaneously
5) Reply the result and the camera model to me
I get bankrupt if I buy more cameras that I cannot use - so I hope anybody can help me.
Regards,
Hemmingsen

Hi I just purchased a WVC54GCA wireless video camera I am having a problem with the setup software

I just purchased this wireless video camera and I am trying to set up the wireless key. I have put in the SSID and then the option of WEP (128 bit) or 26 character key. I then try to input the 26 character key and the text box can't take that number so I am supposed to click next and enter the key on the next page..... only it is at the last page where you would save the settings and I don't see anywhere to edit it. I know I get a bit hurried is there something I am missing?? I would appreciate any assistance you can offer. Thanks a ton

If you are trying to configure your Camera using the Setup disk, you can exit from the setup and configure all the settings on your Camera Manually.Follow the Instruction below to Configure your Camera manually..

• Only if your video camera supports it. Depending on how your camera works, you may need to add preview software to your Mac to use this feature.
• Alternatively, your camera may also be able to record directly into your Mac while you are monitoring the Mac's display.
• If you are using a consumer camcorder that supports HDMI monitoring, a small HDTV might be an simpler solution than your Mac. For an example of how this is done, see http://youtu.be/GVpSkZD6qE4.
• The retailer who sold you your video camera may have other suggestions.
• If you need more professional results, an external preview monitor will offer more capability on compatible cameras.

E3000 cannot connect to wireless IP Camera

I am trying to connect 2 wireless IP cameras to my network with a Cisco E3000 router. One is a DLink DCS-920 and the other is Foscam FI8918W. I set up both cameras over ethernet and enter the router stettings. When I disconnect the eternet I do not get wireless connectivity. When I run Cisco Connect software / Computers and Other Devices / Other Wireless Devices, it does not find the cameras.
How do I connect to the cameras?
Thanks

After fiddling with various settings, I now can connect to the webcams locally through my browser. I cannot get the DLink DCS-920 to upload via FTP. The Foscam is not listed in the router's DHCP Client list, but I can see it in my browser.
Any thoughts?
My DLink webcam worked fine with a Netgear router.

WWHEN I CONNECT MY VIDEO CAMERA TO THE MAC, IMOVIE DOES NOT RECONIZE IT SO IT GOES STRAIGHT TO DVD PLAYER. I AM TRYING TO DOWNLOAD VIDEO IN IMOVIE. SOME OF THE DISC WILL GO TO IMOVIE OTHERS STRAIGHT TO DVD PLAYER

When I connect my video camera to the mini mac in order to download into imovie it goes directly to dvd player and I can't download into imovie. It does not reconize a camera being connected. This does not happen all the time. Is something wrong with the disc or the camera???

It sounds like it is mistaking the camera for a DVD disk. So my best follow-up question is to ask:
1. Who is the manufaturer of your camera
2. What is the model number of this camera.
What happens when you quit DVD player. Does iMovie still fail?

Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad? I want to bring RAW photo files from my camera, through the IPad and back to an external hard drive. One of my cameras does not use an SD card. How can I do this?

Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad? I want to bring RAW files from my camera through the IPad and out to an external hard drive. One of my cameras has an SD card but the other one doesn't have a card that would fit in any of the camera devices I've seen on line. Realted to this, I bought the IPad camera accessory. Can I put the SD card in the device and also hook the external hard drive to the USB port of the accessory and download from the camera to the hard drive? Can I put Lightroom or the Nikon photo editing software on the IPad? Right now I carry a PC laptop and external hard drives with me on wildernes trips. Internet and WiFi are not available. Because I shoot so many photos and they're in RAW I need to download from the camera to the external drive because I run out of memory on the PC (and it has much more memory than the IPad). I have Nikon NX software and lightroom on my PC. I'd love to be able to reduce the weight I carry by using the IPad to edit my photos each night while on trips. Is this possible and how would I do it? I'd appreciate any guidance.

No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your best method would be to connect via USB and transfer that way, since videos are not transferred using photostream.
However you can stop photos on your mac being added to photostream in the iPhoto preferences > photostream by unchecking the automatic upload box.

Best Video Settings For The iPad.

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know this ? "Best Video Settings For The iPad".
Kindly and in simple terms state the best possible settings to be use when converting videos for the iPad that optimizes the entire screen size/ area without a black borderline around your video. it's rather frustrating to have many technical jargons online without anyone giving real pointers at real values in conversion settings.
Thanks in anticipation.

Kindly and in simple terms state the best possible settings to be use when converting videos for the iPad that optimizes the entire screen size/ area without a black borderline around your video.
It is impossible to answer your question without knowing both the aspect ratio of the source file and your personal preferences for displaying it on a 4:3 iPad screen.
Basically, you have two options here when converting files of one aspect ratio for display on a screen of another aspect. You can distort the original display to "fill" the ipad screen. (E.g., you can make a widescreen movie exactly fill your iPad screen but then people and objects will look tall and skinny.) The other option is to convert at the original aspect ratio and simply use the iPad "zoom" option to force your widescreen movie to fill your 4:3 screen by scaling the height of your movie to fill the screen and allowing the left and right edges of you movie to be cropped from your view. You have no other choices here other than living with the defaulted black areas.

I have a MacBook Pro (Retina) and a Sony HandyCam DCR-HC48 video Camera. The Sony only exports video via Firewire, which is not available on the Mac. Is there a firewire to USB or to HDMI adapter?

tyler57,
it would be better to direct that question to Gary Loftis, since my MacBook Pro doesn’t have a Thunderbolt port.

Is it possible to create an album in gallery on the iPad or do you have to do it on your computer?

Thanks, how about in gallery on MobileMe ? As I am not near my computer for the next 3 weeks so can't do a cable sync do you think I could create and album in gallery on mobile me on a "borrowed" computer and do it throughout the cloud?

Can you move a video taken on the iPad from the camera roll to 'Videos' without syncing through iPhoto?

Pretty simple question that I can not figure out the answer to. Can you move a video taken on the iPad from the camera roll to 'videos' on the go?

I can do it on my iPhone and, according to the iPad manual (p. 58), you can do it on an iPad.
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Connect a camera to the ipad

Can a camera be connected to an ipad? If so, how? Can you then transfer images from the camera to the ipad, for storage, for editing and for display?

I shoot RAW plus jpeg on my camera and then transfer photos to my iPad with the Camera Connection Kit. All my cameras use a CF card so I just connect the camera to the iPad instead of using the are reader. Once you connect you will be given the option to import all the photos or to select just those you want to import. Also you have the option to delete the photos from the camera or keep them there.
Not all camera work exactly the same. Some will allow you to transfer with the camera off. Other cameras have to be turned on to transfer the photos. So if you connect a camera and mothering happens after a little while, turn on the camera while it is still connected.
