For those of you who simply can’t enough of Disney (and you know who you are) we give you the Disney/Sakar iPad Cam. The pair recently teamed up to make the iPad a fun tool for kids to use for picture sharing. After taking pictures using the Disney embroidered 7MP camera, your child can simply attach the camera to the iPad’s 30-pin connector and easily transfer images for immediate upload to file sharing websites or to email. Additional features include a 1.5” LCD and 4X digital…

Okay, there’s been quite a few video sharing apps the last year or so such as Socialcam, Klip and Vlix but a new one we’ve stumbled on called GivIt adds a different wrinkle that makes it worth a look.

GivIt, available on the web and now also on the iPhone, is designed so you can control the number of viewers who can watch the videos you upload.

Unlike most of the other social video sharing apps, Givit isn’t designed for mass distribution of videos into…

Apple has helped popularize the idea of storing your mobile photos and videos in the “cloud” with its iCloud service. But if you don’t own an Apple device or don’t want to lock yourself into Apple’s ecosystem, a new service called MyDigipack might be for you.

The service is similar to iCloud – but a bit more versatile. The app (available on Android, iPhone and Windows Phone) will automatically upload photos and videos taken on a mobile device to its cloud, where you can access and share on a web…

One of the treasures that has been lost in the digital world of photography is the mystery behind not knowing exactly what you captured with your camera until after you developed the photos. Hipstamatic now has an app dubbed Disposable that is attempting to bring the excitement of the unknown back to some extent. Billed as “the world’s first social camera,” their new app comes with what they call virtual rolls of film, but instead of providing 24 exposures, the app actually connects up to 24 people on…

Well, we’ve raved in the past about the fun, creative and easy way the online video service Animoto allows you to create personal videos with your stills and video clips and now these geniuses are giving us a free mobile app for creating these masterpieces on the fly.

While creating and editing video on the iPhone’s small screen would seem to present some challenges, the Animoto app does all the work for you. All you need to do is pick the style, song, photos, and text you want…

We’re intrigued by Sanho Corporation and their new CloudFTP, a pocket-sized adapter intended to turn any USB storage device (think camera, camcorder, etc.) into a wireless file server. The gadget is aimed at letting you share all your multimedia files through Wi-Fi across PCs, tablets and smartphones in your home.  It has a built-in battery with about up to five hours worth of charge.

It can also automatically connect to the Internet to backup and synchronize your data with popular online Cloud storage services like iCloud, Dropbox and box.net.

We’ll surely be taking a…

A full 27 percent of our photos and videos are now captured using a smartphone, according to a study from the NPD Group.

Having just joined the smartphone set fairly recently (with the iPhone), I do find myself snapping a larger portion of my photos on it. While the quality still lags what you can achieve on a nice standalone camera or d-SLR, the always-connected nature of smartphones do make sharing photos easier. Apple’s iCloud is a great solution that automates the transferring of images – although it’s not perfect…

So you finally upgraded to a new point-and-shoot or maybe you even broke the bank and purchased a DSLR. Good for you. But what good is having a fancy new camera if all you ever do is take crummy pictures with it?

The creators of an online photography teaching service dubbed Digital 1 to 1 have introduced what they are calling “the ultimate photo learning app for the iPhone and iPad.” If you fall into the above category, it’s worth a look.

They have made their…

It has come to this – an iPad 2 app that can actually measure your vital signs – a true what-app-will-they-think-of-next moment. Philips recently launched the app dubbed Vital Signs Camera that can measure your heart rate and breathing via the tablet’s camera.

The iPad 2’s camera detects the small changes in the color of your face to measure your heart rate with, they claim, beat-to-beat accuracy. While these changes are not visible to the eye, with the Philips software the iPad 2 camera detects these …

It’s hard to get noticed in the increasingly crowded mobile photography market, but Streamzoo is giving it a shot by blending photo-sharing features with social gaming. The app – available for Android and iPhone models and available online – turns photos into a social competition with a leaderboard, user-awarded points and badges you can obtain through your photography.

Photos can be tagged with hashtags – much like Twitter – so interested users can search for your images. Photos shot within the Streamzoo app can also be shared on Facebook,…
