To iPad or Not

54 Comments/ 4644/ 0

It’s sweeping the country.  Taking pictures with an iPad.   You see folks everywhere with their iPads poised and ready to take a snappy.  To me it seems a bit cumbersome even with the iPad mini.

On a recent overseas trip our son, Micah, shared that one of his friends lost his phone.  From the sounds of it there were a lot of phones lost during the CBS trip that spanned more countries than I can count.   His friend, George, had an iPad mini and began using that as his camera since his phone was gone.   I think it was one of the many jokes of the trip and folks starting taking pictures of George taking pictures with his iPad.

When we were in NYC acting like tourists we noticed that it is a trend that is gaining popularity.   Micah documented several times during our trip to see The Statue of Liberty and allowed me to have the pictures to share.

I found an article in 9-5 Mac that talks about the popularity of iPad photography.  You can read it by clicking here.  I also found a BuzzFeed article that highlighted 21 Reasons You Should Never Take Pictures with an iPad. All in pictures.  Click on over there—a new window will open up so you won’t lose your place here.

So there you have it—-the reviews are mixed but for me—I will stick to my Lumix or in a pinch my iPhone.   What about you?

Old Girls in Low Cotton

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
