Help!! Camera broken? :(

[brian_fantana]

Hi all
Got my iPad 2 yesterday(32g wifi)
Went to use the camera fornthe first time this morning and when I move it inget dark grainy bits pop up . They go away when it's held still but I'm sure this is right . Just wanted someone to let me know if this is indeed how the camera is

Here's a snap I managed to snap at the time it was doing it .

Mods , sorry if this is in the wrong section , please move it to the appropriate section , thanx

What app are you using? One of the default apps on the iPad does this on purpose - special effects. So let us know the app you're using to take photos and we'll see if we can help

Hi tim thanks for the reply. I'm just started up the camera using the default camera app that comes with the iPad. Thought it might have been an affect but couldn't find any settings for the camera.

 

[Tim SPRACKLEN]

Yes - the default app has a lot of 'special effects'....

Yup. But no worries. I will move it over to our iPad2 section.

How do I change the special effects on the default camera ? I did think is it an effect but it only done that effect when I moved it . If I held it still it was ok ..

It was fairly dark. I'll go outside get a few shots and see what happens

Are you in Camera or Photobooth?

Are you in Camera or Photobooth?

Using camera . Just the standard app that is already installed. Will go outside tomoz day and take some shots and also try a different app and see what happens

I think you need to take it into your local Apple store.

A reset isn't a bad idea either.

Reset: Hold down the power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears. The iPad will reboot. This usually takes a bit longer than a restart.

I had this and took it back to the Apple store they exchanged it.
