An Experiment

Shot and edited on the new iPad.

Not my typical daily video. Just wanted to see how the new iPad lives up to the claims of shooting and editing HD video.

Nicest surprise is that the timeline will show the audio waveform so you can cut to the peaks and valleys. Biggest disappointment is the title engine. It seems to rely strictly on canned themes with no options for using solid backgrounds, changing faces, etc. But if you know a hidden control that I missed, let me know.

Overall, I’m impressed. While it won’t be replacing a dedicated camera and desktop for me, the fact that you can now get a self-contained HD camera, editor and playback solution for $505 seems significant.
