Reagan and I got our hands on a couple of new iPhone 4's yesterday and decided to go test out the new camera with Sash and Rambo yesterday on Hollywood Blvd.

There are a lot of new functionality when you open the camera.



The lightening bolt in the upper left hand corner allows you to adjust the flash - Off, Auto or On

The camera twist icon allows you to switch between lenses, either the one facing you or the traditional outward facing lens.

The camera - video slider allows you to toggle between the two like in the 3Gs.

You can selectively focus as well and once you are focused on something you can zoom in or out with a +/- slider that appears with a double tap.



* One unexpected feature is that when you point it at Rambo her boob pops out.

Here is a full NSFW gallery of our rigorous testing on Hollywood Blvd.



Overall the flash while bright is only really effective if used close-in.

The images when zoomed are not the best quality.



The files are HUGE when they come out of the camera. 1935 x 2592 pixels.



Click to see the full resolution

We took some video of our adventures as well.

Sash lost a bet and had to walk back to the office without her pants on, Donald Duck style (shirt and no pants)

The coolest feature of the new iPhone 4 though has to be FaceTime



You can live video chat with other people who have the iPhone 4. It is like living in The Jetsons. Although you can only use FaceTime when you are on wifi, which is probably for the best considering AT&T's coverage issues.

The screen resolution is also pretty great 4 times the pixels.

All in all the camera and screen resolution are a vast improvement over the 3Gs. Network coverage is still dicey at best and the steel surround antennae to boost the signal has not proven very effective for me at least.

The iOS 4 software update has a host of other features like app folders, background image, camera zoom, etc.

Available today from Apple

I also like the new OS feature that allows multi-tasking! Unfortunately, I'm a Verizon customer and thus only have an iPod touch. As yet, no boobs have materialized whenever I point it in the desired direction.

ATT screwed me once already so I refuse to do business with them so I guess I'm stuck until a minor tech miracle happens.

Haha, I love the video of Sash walking back to the office. She was definitely turning heads, and she was a good sport after losing that bet. smile

Great article. It looks like an awesome phone.

If the newswire made a return with more articles like this, I could be happy about that.

Or until AT&T's exclusive US contract expires in another 2 years.

I hope I'm not out of line, but it seems odd to support Apple with your business after the stunts they pulled with your iPhone apps. Just sayin'.

I'm interested in your views on the Android, and a range of other smart phones. I recommend a new tech featurette on the blog.

Didn't we say the contract was going to run out in two years...two years ago? Did they re-up?

I think it's set to expire in 2012, however that hasn't kept rampant speculation from circulating on the net.
