iPad 2 camera test: Car Wash [Possible camera issues?]

Went to the car wash today. I had my iPad 2 in my bag, so I figured I could take it out and do a test recording, since I've yet to record a video on it. It's not *that* bad, but I guess it's better than no camera at all, right?

Also, play the video at 01:19 (also again between 02:08 and 02:11).You'll notice that for a split second, the colors will go crazy, and then go back to normal. I've noticed this since I started using my iPad 2 for FaceTime video calls. This seems to happen on both the front camera and the rear camera. Not sure if this can be fixed through a software update, but it's sort of annoying... It also happened a third time (actually the first one) at around 00:35.

WHERE TO WATCH:
00:35 - The first time.
01:19 - The second time.
02:08 - The third time.

How can you complain about that? OBviously its the SUN LIGHT. Its like you trying to look straight at the sun for 1 minute. Impossible. And we are perfectly created creatures... imagine a man made device!

@whonotwhatnot You are looking at the random color glitching, right?

I'd be more concerned about the music selection, if I were you.

@gunthermusician Atreyu FTW.

The ipad 2 is having so SO much problems already. Come on Apple, you can do way better than this. You are supposed to be fixing all the problems that the first ipad had not making new ones.

@ecartman12 So many problems? I can only think of two: screen bleeding, camera issue. Both of which are very small. The camera issue will be fixed in an upcoming software update, and the screen bleeding issue tends to disappear after a couple of weeks.

The reality of a car wash's "soap" is Chuck Norris Masturbating outside the car.

Why do people need a camera on somthing like this? your not going out to take pictures on this instead of a normal camera? just be glad their there.

[YoMamasPoop53]

i don get why everyone says that they need a new camera on the ipad 2. its perfectly fine i meen your not making a 5 star film or something and this video proves that the quality is just fine so quit bitchin.

[timerunnerproduction]

if you actually know how sensors work > it doesn't sense nothingness... it senses light, and if the light is too bright, it makes all the colors darker, and vise versa... i don't see this "glitch"

[MrJosefigueroab]

the ipad should get a 5megapixel camera with flash and better focusing

[loftenchag]

Looks like it tried to key something out... O.o

[alfa358]

The video quality its pretty good
