New iPod Touch 4G Camera resolution?

It looks like the rear facing camera is only capable of making a .7 mp still image. Am I missing something?

Centurion, I have to say don't jump off the bridge just yet to write-off the iPod touch as a bad product. Unfortunately apple slim down the iPod touch design even more sacrificing camera resolution, it wasn't a very smart move indeed but now that doesn't matter. According to several reports of actual people playing with the iPod touch device at the event experience that the rear-facing camera offers a relatively low 960×720 pixel resolution, as compared to 2592×1936 pixels on the iPhone 4. That means it produces photos that are only 14% the size of those taken with big brother iPhone 4. Hopefully the iPod touch is using a backlit sensor, so the color rendition and low light performance will hopefully be closer to the iPhone 4 than earlier iPhones, which took comparatively grainier and muted photos.
On a related note, I'm also really wondering how the new iPod touch is going to handle FaceTime, given that it appears to lack the dual microphone system of the iPhone 4????

  • What are the new features in the new ipod touch?

    So for the new iPod Touch that came out on October 12th, what are the new features that they have?
    I can't find any difference between the last iTouch and this new iTouch.....plz tell me!

    There's no new iPod Touch. What came out Oct. 12 was just software, the new iOS 5. For an overview of new features, see here: http://www.apple.com/ios/

  • New ipod touch to make time lapse video

    I realize it might be too early to ask since the new ipod touch just came out, but does anyone know if there might be a setting or app to shoot time lapse stills?

    Slowed my computer down to unusability, missing (or hidden so I couldn't find them) things I consider key features (tag editing, smart playlists, podcasts). Doesn't appear to do anything I can't already do with iTunes. The Amazon Downloader already adds any of my purchases to my iTunes library.
    Oh, and it never recognized my Touch (3.1.2) so I don't know how it would have worked. Would it have synced? Or would I have been stuck with tediously dragging and dropping things?
    Given what it did to my computer, I'm unlikely to spend much time trying to get it to work. Perhaps it works better on a Windows box but I don't think I want to subject my low horsepower netbook to it.
    Best of luck.

  • My new ipod touch shows up as a cannon camera.

    My new ipod touch shows up as a cannon camera. I cannot upload itunes to it if my windows xp cannot identify.
    Every thing was working with ipod shuffle.
    Help resolve and use new ipod touch please!

    this usually means you either have a screenshot or a saved photo, go to the photos app and make sure that there isn't a section that is titled "Saved Photos" or "Camera Roll" if there is delete the photos from this section by clicking the picture, click it when the photo goes full screen and a menu option should pop up, push the icon that looks like a trash can and press "delete photo". Now the ipod should not show as a camera in windows

  • Do any one know how much it is to get the new ipod touch with the camera if you trade in your old ipod touch?

    Sounds like you need a new battery.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm.  Apple will replace the battery for $79.  A third-party place like the folloing may be less expensive.  Google for more places.

  • Does the new ipod touch have the same camera optics as the iphone 4S?

    Does the new iPod Touch have the same camera optics as the iPhone 4S?

    Thank you for your reply. But once again if you can clarify please: Let's say I want to purchase the new white iPod Touch (introduced October 2011), will it have the 8 MP camera and improved optics? I'm wondering because I love to take photos and use photo-sharing apps, and I've read so many great reviews on the outstanding camera of the iPhone 4S - but I can't afford the iPhone just yet (also because of my current phone contract) so I was wondering if the newest iPod Touch camera is the same as iPhone 4S. I have the iPod Touch 4th gen, the one introduced Sept 2010, and as you may know that camera isn't the best. I just want to take better photos to share.
    Thank you.

    For recording video , the 720P HD video camera at the back is amazing quality when their is enough lighting. You would be pretty amazing what a little device such as the iPod Touch can do.

  • I backed up my new iPod touch with data from my old one. This seems to have erased all the new apps that came with the new iPod. What do I do now?

    I got a new iPod Touch today. I wanted to transfer all my apps and data over to the new iPod from my old one, so I restored it from my old one. Unfortunately, it seems to have erased the new apps that come with the latest iPod. What do I do to get the back?

    Maybe I'm confusing apps with function. I was looking at the features on Apple's site, and it showed Voice Control, Air Print, Air Play, that sort of thing.
