Can You Take Better Videos With the iPad?

Knowing how to use the iPad well will definitely justify spending cash for iPads. One of the things that you can improve is taking better videos with it. Yes, the iPad’s cameras can actually capture video. This is one of the more overlooked features of the iPad. The iPad camera is basically something people use for FaceTime, the video chatting capability of the tablet PC. Only a few people use the iPad cameras for taking pictures, and much less for taking videos. This is a shame because the iPad cameras have been drastically improved since the days of the first generation iPad. Furthermore, the quality of the videos captured by the iPad is comparable those captured with high definition video paraphernalia. Of course, it is more convenient to take videos with the iPad and edit them later using great video editing apps. There would be no need to transfer video files from one device to another, saving precious time. 

Don’t worry if you are a neophyte in the field of video taking. You can still capture great video using the iPad by taking advantage of the latest version’s HD camera. You won’t be entertaining thoughts of getting cash for iPad after getting wonderful video. Just be mindful of the following things:

· Focusing

Since the iPad’s camera does not have auto-focus, just note that there is a certain point when the images become blurry especially when taking close up shots. As a rule of thumb, keep a distance of at least 35 cm between the camera and the subject. This will let you avoid blurry shots because you are too close to what you are taking a video of.

· Motion distortion

The iPad’s video camera is prone to motion distortion. To avoid this, try to minimize movement during shots. When you have to pan, do it slowly.

· Stability

The iPad’s size gives it an advantage over shooting videos using a camera phone. You can hold it much steadier than a phone, making the video less shaky. To ensure stability, you can prop the iPad up on a surface such as a table or even a book, or you can hold it in front of you with both hands, with your elbows over your abdomen as a sort of tripod.

· Sound quality

Be mindful of where the microphone is placed at all times while shooting a video. There is a tendency for people’s hands to go over and cover the microphone, resulting in poor sound quality.

· Light sources

Always ensure that there is enough ambient lighting to ensure good video quality. If you have to shoot in a low light environment, try to bring in an additional light source. Also, do not move from one lighting situation to another in one motion. Give the iPad time to adjust to another light level which will take a couple of seconds.

Getting the most out of your iPad’s video camera will definitely justify spending so much cash for iPads.

Better Pictures With Your iPad

No one can fault the designers of the iPad for resting on their laurels. For the past three versions of the iPad, the improvements on the gadget have been constant. It seems Apple has always been trying to outdo itself for the benefit of the customers. With the enhancements made on the latest version, it is not difficult nowadays to convince people to spend their cash for iPad tablets. One of the improvements was its camera, or rather, cameras. From its humble one camera set up in the first version, the iPad 3 now has two improved cameras.

But then, aside from using either of the cameras for FaceTime, not a lot of people know how to really make good use of their cameras, especially for taking pictures. The gadget is a bit too bulky to use as a point and short camera, after all. However, the iPad cameras are quite advanced and it would be a waste not to take full advantage of them. Here are some tips on taking good photos, so that your iPad can be a helpful gadget documenting daily life events.

Keeping it steady

Since the iPad is a larger device than phones or digital cameras, it is more challenging to keep it steady. To reduce blurry photos, we suggest that you prop it against something such as a table or a book. You can also try to hold it with two hands and have a companion tap on the screen to take the photo.

Light source

One basic photography rule that universally applies to all cameras, including the iPad’s, is to know your source of light. If your photos are too dark, you have to move your subject closer to a light source or use a flash to create light.

Composition

Composition is another of photography’s basics. Everyone, including casual photographers like you have to keep it in mind, especially if you want to get some good photos out of your iPad’s camera. Be aware of the Rule of Thirds when taking photos with your iPad. What is the rule of thirds? Simply put, imagine a picture divided by two horizontal and two vertical lines, creating nine squares. Now, you have to make sure each square can stand alone as a picture. Know when it is best applied and when you can break this rule.

Focusing

One of the things that distinguish a good photo from a bad one is that in the former, the subject of the photograph is in focus. There are way too many pictures where the background is in focus instead of the subject. To focus using the iPad, just tap on where you want the camera to focus.

Special effects

Finally, you can also use special effects to enhance the photos that you have taken. There are a lot of apps that you can buy for this but if you don’t want to spend cash for iPad apps, there are free ones such as Instagram.

Now that you know these tips, you’d be taking great pictures, so there’s really no need to sell your iPad out of sheer frustration.

Before you sell your used iPad, give it the chance to become the ultimate multimedia portal. After all, it cannot be denied that a lot of iPad owners use their device to watch videos. There’s definitely no shame in this, as some of the iPad’s features, especially the screen’s Retina Display, have been enhanced to give you a better video viewing experience. Be proud you are using one of the world’s sharpest devices to watch your favorite movies. Here are a few apps for you to enjoy:

Netflix (Free) 

Where else do we start but with the mother of all movie borrowing sites? The app itself is free to download. With some Android devices, this app is already pre-installed. With this, you can manage your Netflix subscription and manage DVD and streaming queues. This app allows streaming of your favorite television shows, sitcoms and movies right onto your iPad. It’s a great app to watch all the classics you’ve missed or if you just want to follow some tastemaker’s recommendations. Heard of a great Bollywood musical or a European filmfest darling? Chances are, you won’t see that in DVD stores, but Netflix has copies!

YouTube (Free)

This built-in app is still one of the best ways to watch videos on the iPad. How can you go wrong with the world’s most popular video sharing site? You can search from the millions of videos available online. Its interface is very friendly and navigation is easy to understand. The best part is that you do not have to pay anything to watch the videos. You can even bookmark your favorite videos for easy access. You certainly will spend hundreds of hours with this app, so you may have to delay your plans to sell your iPad.

Vimeo (Free) 

This offers a similar service to YouTube. It now supports HTML 5, which allows it to play videos on the iPad. You can watch movies uploaded to the Vimeo site or the one that you made yourself using the app. The app also lets you manage your favorite videos as well as editing preferences of the videos. Vimeo is reputed to host better videos in HD, so if you’re finicky about video quality, this app is the way to go.

ABC (Free) 

This is arguably the best iPad app among the television networks offering video streaming services. This is the only big network that allows you to watch full episodes right on your iPad. You can expect to see full episodes of your favorite ABC shows anytime and anywhere you are.

AVPlayer HD (Free)

This app was developed by Eplayworks. This player is simple, easy to use and it works. It can play almost all video formats without any hitches. The only setback is that it does not have a web browser or a download option but it works very well for video files.

Think twice before you sell your iPad online as it can be your most trusty tool when looking for the viral video everybody’s talking about, or if you’re just passing the time watching random stuff.

5 Tips and Tricks for the Nexus 7

You might have thought things over and decided that it is time to sell broken iPad and get the Nexus 7. This 7-inch device is quite nifty and handy. In terms of functions and features, you might think that the small size makes it limited. Think again – there are actually some really cool things you can do with it. Here are some of them:

Face Unlock

For those who have the Samsung Galaxy S3, this is actually a familiar feature. The difference with the Nexus 7 is that it can be configured in such a way that the user only needs to blink his eyes in order to unlock the screen. This is as highly personalized and secure as security features for a tablet OC can go.

Google Voice Search

If you are frustrated that the iPad does not have Siri yert, rejoice, because for the Nexus 7, a similar feature is present. Pretty much similar to Apple’s Siri, all you have to do is to speak and ask a question. The program will process the available data and answer the question by giving out the information needed. 

Easy transfer of music files from iTunes to the Nexus 7

Contrary to what many people say, you can get the music that you have from your iTunes and transfer it to your Nexus 7 tablet PC. The great thing about this is that you do not need any software to accomplish it. All you have to do is to copy the iTunes files to your desktop and make sure that your Nexus 7 is connected to the laptop. It will work similar to an external storage drive and all you have to do is to copy and paste the items you got from iTunes into your Nexus 7. Who says you can’t work an Apple program on a Google device? 

Adding Google Play Widgets

If you want quick and easy access to your most used applications or information just create widgets. Then you won’t have to install an applications folder just to access them. 

 
Getting more space

Unfortunately, the Nexus 7 does not have USB or SD card ports, so you cannot use USB devices or SD cards to expand your storage date. With the limited internal storage offered for the Nexus 7, it is about time that you utilize other cloud-storage options such as Dropbox, Google Drive, Sugar Sync, among others. You can also access direct streaming of music and videos from Google Music and Google Play Store. This will free up your tablet PC for more important files that you need with you all the time. 

They say that the Nexus 7 will make you decide to sell broken iPad right away. For those who want to have a smaller tablet PC but were not that impressed with the offerings from Samsung and Amazon, then the Nexus 7 may actually be the best option in the market right now. So, you might indeed be tempted to sell iPad for the Nexus 7.

The Kobo Vox: Just Another Glamorized E-Book Reader?

A lot of people are now realizing that it is profitable to sell old iPad because they are still in demand despite new models being introduced. People are willing to spend their extra money just to get their hands on one. But then, these days the iPad is not the only gadget getting a lot of attention. While sales figures still point to the iPad as the best-selling tablet PC, other brands of Android-based tablet PCs have also attempted to grab a piece of the tablet PC pie. If you are looking for a tablet PC to purchase, it is best to read reviews of several options first to see if this is exactly the one that you are looking for. Take advantage of the variety of choices before settling for the one you could possibly sell your iPad for so as not to waste your hard-earned money. 

 
The Kobo Vox is one of those tablet PCs available in the market today. This product is being marketed by a small Canadian firm considered to be one of the underdogs in the industry. Actually, Kobo started off as a manufacturer of e-book readers, where it faced intense competition from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Sony. This tablet PC belongs to the 7-inch category, as it is only 7.5 inches, which is smaller than the Playbook, RIM’s troubled tablet PC, but a little bit bigger than the Amazon Kindle. But the differences in sizes can be negligible as what matters is what is inside the unit as well as the performance when compared to the other tablet PCs of the same size. For some people though, even a quarter of an inch can spell a huge difference in their choice, as they deem the slightly longer or wider one to be heavier. As weird as that may sound, that’s how particular some people are about their tablet PC choices.

Going back to the Kobo Vox, the unit is runs on an 800MHz processor with 512 RAM, which is significantly lower than most tablet PCs that you see nowadays. Thus, you can’t really expect the device to be as fast or responsive as other tablet PCs. But considering the market of the Vox includes individuals who primarily use the e-book functionality of their devices, having a slightly slower tablet OC is not that big of a deal.

It is only available in 8 GB internal storage of which only about 5 GB is usable. Users can expand the Vox’s storage with the microSD card, and you can always add up to a whopping 32 GB of additional storage. Connection is only available via Wi-Fi and battery life lasts only about 5 hours.

With just the basic specs, you can say that this thing is better off indeed to be used as an e-book reader rather than a full-functioning tablet PC. For the $191.00 price tag, you can get yourself a better tablet PC like the Kindle Fire or the Nook. But for most of us, a much better idea is to save up money to exchange the cash for iPad.

Finding the Best Small Tablet

When you decide to sell your iPad online and shift to a smaller one, you may be afraid that there are not too many options. But on the contrary, there are actually a number of choices from many manufacturers. French manufacturer Archos and bookstore giant Barnes and Noble are just some of the firms that have their own versions of the small tablet. 

If you have plans to sell used iPad to shift to a smaller tablet, here are some of the more popular options you have:

Google Nexus 7 ($199) 

This 7-inch tablet is touted to be the challenger that iPad has long been waiting for. Google and Asus paired up to produce this tablet PC that has been reviewed (at least initially) as reliable and fast. It already runs on the latest Android Jelly Bean (the first device to run on this operating system) and comes pre-installed with a couple of apps from Google Play. Some of the setbacks of this tablet PC include that it has a weak display contrast, comes with a limited storage option (does not have provisions for USB or SD card connectivity) and there are not many Android apps to choose from. 

 
Kindle Fire ($199) 

This is another 7-inch tablet available in the market today. This is made by Amazon as an e-book reader with a few other extras snuck in. It’s got a good solid built feel that will make you think that it is a good value for your money. Using it is easy as the interface is very user-friendly. It also has a great pre-installed web browser, the Silk, which makes purchasing books from the Amazon site really easy. There are a few setbacks though, one of which is the lack of a camera. It is also reported that it performs erratically probably because it still runs on Android Gingerbread. Also, storage is limited as well as the apps since it does not have access to the Android market. 

 
Samsung Galaxy ($199.99) 

This tablet PC still belongs to the 7-inch market. It has a nice solid feel to it. As with the other similar-sized tablet PCs, it is comfortable to use yet the screen is big enough to appreciate most apps. It runs on Android 2.2 which is common among many tablet PCs. Since it has Wi-Fi and 3G-network access, you are sure always to be connected to the Internet. Since it has 3G access, you can actually use it as a phone. You just have to be wary of the lagging performance as well as the weak battery of the unit.

Think hard before making your decision to sell your iPad and shift to these tablet PCs. If you are someone who is not that particular about screen size, these smaller tablets should satisfy you, as they are handier and less of a hassle to carry around. Otherwise, if you are into lots of detail of what you are watching on your tablet PC, then it might be better for you to stick with a tablet PC with a larger screen.

Getting to Know the Maylong M-150 and Augen GenTouch 78

The market is definitely ready for the invasion of tablet PCs. We all know that it can be attributed to the iPad, which started it all. It was the iPad that paved the way for the acceptance of the tablet PC in the market. Now, you can find a lot of people who sell old iPads or even exchange cash for iPads. After its success, other computer manufacturers followed suit and have built their own tablet PC to compete with the iPad.

The only downside that people can see with the iPad is its price. Not everyone can afford even the most basic of the models, which is priced at around $500. This is where the other companies built up their product. They emphasize that their product is more affordable than the iPad but can still perform all the things that the iPad can. However, not all of these more affordable tablet PCs even come close to the specifications of the iPad or what it can do. Two examples of cheap tablet PCs are the Maylong M-150 and the Augen GenTouch 78.

Maylong M-150 

Let’s start with the Maylong M-150. This 7-inch tablet PC was sold at Walgreens for only $99. Of course, who could resist the price? It was declared sold out online and you could not find it at any of their branches after it was launched. This product was made available a few months after Apple released the iPad. This was an Android-based tablet that was run by an ARM9 533MHz CPU with 256MB of memory. By the looks of it, this product was way slower than the first generation iPad. It had most of the features that a tablet PC should have like the pre-requisite camera, Wi-Fi connectivity, speakers, a micro SD card slot, as well as a USB port. It only had 2GB of internal memory, but could be increased with the micro SD and external peripherals attached via USB. Battery standby time was only 2 to 3 hours and actual usage lasted only an hour.

Augen GenTouch 78 

Another one of those not so known tablet PCs launched after the iPad was the Augen GenTouch 78. This $150 7-inch tablet PC was available in all Kmart stores nationwide. However, there was a shortage of the units all because those looking for a cheaper iPad alternative were initially enamored with this product, only to be disappointed in the end. It only had an 800MHz processor with 256MB of memory. The screen resolution was low and it was unresponsive most of the time because it did not support a multi-touch gesture. The unit also easily heated up when in use which made it uncomfortable to use. Its only saving grace was probably its price, as well as the fact that it came installed with an Android operating system.

It is true that these tablets cost way lower than the iPad. However, if you are looking for an iPad alternative that is not only affordable but also of good quality, then you should continue searching. These two tablet PCs will just disappoint you and the affordable price tag is not enough to compensate for the usabilty of these units. It might be better for you to go buy from those who sell used iPad.

Flying High With the iPad

The Airline Industry Goes iPad-Crazy 

If you are thinking about whether you should sell your iPad and get another tablet PC, you should think twice. Consider the fact that this device is so versatile that it can be used for simple personal games as well as more complex tasks involved in flying. Starting last year, Alaska Airlines and United Continental purchased and issued iPads to their pilots to replace paper manuals and charts. American Airlines also secured approval from the US FAA as well to use the tablet to display digital manuals and charts for all phases of the flight, starting from takeoff to landing.

This is made possible through apps created specifically for pilot use by Jeppeson, a subsidiary of Boeing. Another app developed by Australian carrier, Qantas can provide pilots with up to date flight data and other relevant information. There’s no reason for you now to sell iPad because many airlines are also making these apps available for their customers so they can be updated with information such as flight times and luggage restrictions.

Aside from the obvious benefit of saving tons of paper (and trees), in the case of the airline industry, this move has eliminated a significant amount of weight during the flight. This in turn directly translates to increasing an airline’s savings in fuel consumption. Hopefully, this move will trickle down to the airline passengers in terms of lower ticket prices or fewer surcharges.

Aside from pilots, cabin crews and managers are also being equipped with iPads. For example, British Airways has issued iPads to their cabin crew. These tablets are loaded with data relevant to their jobs such as cabin information and a passenger manifest. Theoretically, this will make their job faster and more efficient.

However, this does not guarantee a better customer service experience for passengers. Even when the pilots and cabin crew have the best and latest gadgets, it is still their attitudes that make passengers feel that they had a wonderful flight experience. But then, if customer service means passengers being provided with an iPad for all flights, then who are we to complain? Qantas, already mentioned earlier as providing its crew with iPads, has also provided all passengers on their flights using the 767 aircraft iPads as well. The iPads are safely tucked in the pockets of every seat. So, there’s no need for passengers to pull out their own personal iPads and put it on ‘flight mode’ to be entertained. They can just enjoy the device the airline provides.

Aside from giving passengers entertainment options, the iPad can also mean a reduction in weight, as traditional screens used for passenger entertainment and other devices can definitely weigh more than iPads. Speaking of making planes lighter, that’s what Scoot Pte. experienced first-hand. This airline, the low cost carrier of Singapore Airlines, decided to substitute the iPad for all its in-flight entertainment options. Howe much weight was saved because of this effort? Two tons!

Even in the airline industry, it seems that the domination of the iPad is inevitable. If you don’t care that much about the airline industry though, then you might as well go sell your old and used iPad.

Safety First With Your iPad

If you think that you will have to always shell out cash for iPad apps, especially for those that you use for your security, think again. Personal security has been at the news forefront, especially with the recent cinema tragedy in Aurora, Colorado. It seems that there is no place too safe for people these days, as they can be attacked even in the theater. Security apps should be a welcome source of comfort just in case something unexpected happens.

Here are four apps for your personal security that you can download free of charge.

The My Security App has features such as the friend tracker, which you can activate when you want someone to keep track of you. This is handy, for example, when you are walking alone somewhere you’re not sure is safe. The one who is tracking you will be able to know your whereabouts via Google Maps. When activated, the Panic Button feature will send your GPS location and a message that you might be in danger to people who are on your contact list.

Security of the data stored on your iPad is also as important. Try out the Hide Calculator App – it hides files such as documents, videos, and photos that you don’t want other people to see. It looks and works just like any ordinary calculator, but if you type in your password, the files that you have chosen to hide can be accessed. It is also a video player, so that you can open the video files that you have hidden within the app itself. This should be perfect for people who want to make sure the data stored on their iPads is safe, even in cases of burglary or bag snatching.

Find My iPad app comes handy when you forgot where you have placed your iPad or if you think someone stole it to exchange cash for iPad. You can locate your iPad on a map using iCloud to enable it and you will be able to see the approximate location of your iPad on the map. It also has a feature where it will display a message so that anyone who finds it can return it to you. The message will appear even if the screen is locked. The app also allows you to set a new password remotely, or if finding it has become impossible, you can remotely wipe all data on your iPad.

Finally, there’s the Guardian Trace app that lets the user make check-ins at regular intervals. Anyone who has this app will be required to send regular check-ins, especially when engaging in risky activities like going on a blind date or walking alone in the neighborhood. If you fail to check in, the app sends alerts, including your last known GPS location coordinates, to your pre-defined emergency contacts.

These apps are in no way a vehicle to instill fear among iPad users. It’s just that in our world, it’s always better to be safe than sorry. Why not sell old iPad and upgrade to the new version? Rather than equipping yourself with exaggerated implements like a gun or a knife, do it the intelligent way – the iPad!

Can Old People Still Enjoy the iPad?

Whenever a new version of the iPad comes out, the first thing that most people do is sell iPad that they have for the new one. But then, instead of selling it, why not give it to your grandma or grandpa? You don’t get cash from it, but then if you’re looking for a present for them, a used iPad should be a great choice. Despite being a top of the line device containing the latest technology, you will be surprised at how easy it is for old people to use this popular tablet. Coupled with a variety of apps from entertainment to practical, it is guaranteed that old people will indeed enjoy the iPad.

The thing about old people is that they have a sort of phobia when it comes to modern technology. They fear having to interact with anything new, especially anything that involves computers. Every time I go to my hometown in New York, my mom still gives me her ATM card when she wants to get some money. She claims she is scared of operating an ATM. An ATM! What could be scary about punching some keys on a pretty user-friendly device? She says she is afraid that she might punch the wrong key and the machine would just suddenly explode. Blame it on those 1980 sitcoms that showed gargantuan machines emitting smoke with just one wrong move. When I asked her if she wanted an iPad for her birthday, she flatly refused my offer, saying she would just destroy it. She advised me to sell my iPad or that unit I bought for her and just give her cash instead. Now I know that my mom is not my grandma, but she is part of the older generation. So, I figured that if I gave her a used iPad, her fears of messing up might be assuaged, as my gadget wouldn’t be so sleek and sparkling new anymore.

One of the concerns senior citizens or retirees have is how to keep their mind sharp even if they are not working actively anymore. Thus, a lot of retirees’ pastimes include reading, doing crosswords, or playing games such as Sudoku. They can do all of these using the iPad by just installing some apps.

For grandpas and grandmas who are book lovers, they can read all the books that they didn’t have time to read before with e-book readers such as the iBooks or the Kindle reader apps. Both of these apps are free, and aside from that, there are scores of free books for download in either the iTunes store or on Amazon.

For crossword puzzle fanatics, a recommended app is Black Ink from Red Sweater. It is considered to be one of the most attractive and best functioning crossword apps available. Sudoku addicts, on the other hand, will not be disappointed with the Enjoy Sudoku app. Available for just $2.99, it is guaranteed to keep Sudoku fans occupied for as long as they need to be.

So, as an alternative to sell iPad, consider giving it as a present to an elderly family member who will surely benefit from this nifty device.

Should Everyone Have an iPad?

The iPad is one of the most sought after gadgets these days. You can see a lot of people trying their best to get a hold of one. Some people even resort to buying second hand iPads from those who sell used iPad, especially when they do not have enough funds for a brand new one. People have found many uses for the iPad, which is why they want to own one.

Age Appropriate Classes and Equipment

In the past, it was the older generations that you would see using and operating computers. Eventually, users became younger and younger. It is a common sight nowadays for children as young as five years old to be operating a desktop computer, or even a laptop. Schools have also revised their curriculum to accommodate computer classes for those who are still in grade school. Educators have seen the need for these classes to equip children as young as first graders with the right knowledge and skills to help them in their future.

 
Kindergarten kids are already exposed to using the computer. Of course, the software that these little ones use should be age-appropriate. The goal of exposing them to computing devices at such a young age would be to familiarize them with how to use the peripherals usually associated with the machine. Nowadays, it’s the tablet PC that is gaining a lot of media mileage, making it popular with everyone, even those who are still in school. Even kids already know how to operate it because it is so easy.

Convenience and Ease of Use

What the tablet PC is offering is convenience and ease of use whenever you need something done involving a computer. You can even exchange cash for iPad. It can do most of the basic things that a full-sized laptop can do like word processing, spreadsheet editing, video playback, presentations, and emails. That is why office workers, especially those who are required to be on the field most of the time, prefer to have this. They can work on projects from the office without needing to actually be present there.

Students also love to use the iPad because it offers them ease of use especially during lectures wherein they have to take notes. The flat screen of the iPad also does not obstruct your view of the stage or of the professor because it can lie flat on the table. Different kinds of applications can be installed on it to help a student with his studies. The iPad aids younger students with studying because some of the textbooks are already encoded in electronic form. Kids and toddlers love to use the iPad because of the interactive applications that you can install on it. It can be both educational and fun for them.

The use of the iPad crosses all ages. It can be age appropriate depending on the applications that are installed on the unit. Adult supervision is needed for those who let kids use the iPad. This is the beauty of this machine aside from the fact that you can get cash for iPad. Everyone can use it and have fun with it.
