The Kogeto Dot is a 360° panoramic video attachment for the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 4S. We were fairly impressed with its capabilities to take great action videos in our video review of the device.
Since we're finished with our review, we're happy to pass on the 360° panoramic goodness to one of our readers. Check inside for your chance to win your very on Kogeto Dot...
It started as a Kickstarter project and it received enough interest and funding to turn into a reality. The Kogeto Dot is a nifty little peripheral for the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S that allows you to shoot 360 degree panoramic video.
It's the perfect accessory for recording sporting activities and pretty much anything that involves action. Take a gander at our hands-on video review of the Kogeto Dot...
Patent applications aren't always a sign that something is definitely going to make its way to market, but they can often be a good indication of the kinds of things companies are looking at adding to products.
That said, we have another patent application from the boffins at Apple, and this time it appears to be a new way of sending and receiving data between two devices. The system will use the devices' cameras as a way of establishing a secure connection...
Instagram is definitely in danger of taking over the world. What started out as a neat little app for taking and sharing stylised photographs on an iPhone has ballooned into something more than we could ever imagine. But wouldn't it be awesome to get those great photos off of your iPhone and into the real world?
Bursting out of the digital realm and into the analog one is something that Instagram photos have done before. Not that long ago we told you about an art gallery that was opening in London. The gallery was going to be showing Instagram photos, and only Instagram photos. If you ever wondered what it would look like to take an iOS app and blow it right up, then this is perfect example. Well, this and Angry Birds.
Now you can take your Instagram photos and have them made into all manner of photographic keepsakes, and we have to say that they look pretty impressive...
According to some excerpts from Steve Jobs' recently released biography, the ex-CEO wanted to "reinvent" three markets: television, text books, and photography. The first is still a rumor, the second is happening as we speak, and the third is still up for discussion.
Looking at the image upload data from Flickr shows that the top four most popular cameraphones are iPhones, and the most popular camera overall is the iPhone 4. So is this what Jobs was talking about? Or did he want to build an actual camera, like this one?
According to Flickr's image upload data, a lot of people use their iPhone as their main camera. Not only is the iPhone 4 the most popular camera (not smartphone, camera) on the photo-sharing site, but Flickr's top 4 cameraphones are iPhones.
And the iPad, well, we all know how popular Apple's tablet is. USBFever might actually be onto something with its new cable accessory that connects the two products, allowing users to transfer photos from the iPhone to the iPad with little effort...
Not only does Apple make a fortune from its iPhones, iPads, and anything else with a lower-case "i," but it also spawned thousands of awesome accessories. The iPhone especially has seen some interesting accessories come its way, and "interesting" is probably the best way to describe this particular case.
Weighing in at $250 and sporting three rotatable lenses, the Lens Dial is perhaps more than a normal case, but it is also one of the more whacky.
The Lens Dial, carved from aircraft-grade aluminum, packs the three lenses shown in the picture, allowing photographic types to take all kinds of images using the iPhone's built-in shooter...
The iPhone 4S' rebuilt 8MP camera is one of the new handset's most talked about features. It captures sharper images with much better color in low-light situations than its predecessor, with 60% more pixels.
Apple has even been touting the 4S as a point-and-shoot camera replacement, and it seems like iPhone 4S owners agree with that statement. The handset has just become the second most frequently used camera phone on Flickr...
Remember that iPhone camera remote of Belkin's that went through the FCC last week? The accessory maker has now made it all official, and the remote even has a friend tagging along for the ride.
Belkin today announced the LiveAction Camera Remote alongside the LiveAction Grip, both of which will cost $49.99, with the former now available for pre-order and the latter shipping today.
Both accessories look to take advantage of the cameras in the iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, and of course, the iPod touch...
There are some great iPad apps out there, if you know where to look. One such app comes from Seoul-based Innoiz, and it goes by the name of Poly.
Poly is an iPad app that allows users to turn any photo into one that appears to be made up solely of polygons, just like the video games of old...
The iPhone's camera is becoming so good that you can arguably do without a 'real' camera these days. Packing a 8 megapixel camera, the iPhone 4S outperforms most point-and-shoot cameras, and it also kicks out some impressive 1080p video.
Unfortunately, your iPhone can't track your movements, all the while keeping you perfectly framed.
With Swivl, any iPhone can be turned into an auto-tracking camera, and it looks great...
Yesterday, a hidden feature was revealed in iOS 5. It turns out that the panorama camera mode that Apple was rumored to be working on is actually baked into iOS. Shortly after the feature was exposed, jailbreakers were able to download a tweak to enable it.
But what if you're not jailbroken? With no iPhone 4S jailbreak available, and no word on an iOS 5 untether, not everyone's iPhone is hacked at the moment. Luckily, the folks over at FSM just posted a method to enable the Panorama feature — no jailbreak required...
