Learn how to use camera on iPad Mini 2.
Quick! Get the camera! Swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen to open Control Center, then tap Camera icon.
With iPad, you can take both still photos and videos using the front FaceTime camera or the back camera.
A rectangle briefly appears where the exposure is set. When you photograph people, face detection (iPad 3rd generation or later) balances the exposure across up to 10 faces. A rectangle appears for each face detected. With the iSight camera, the focus is set in addition to the exposure.
Drag up or down to choose the Camera mode for still photos, square-format photos, or videos. Take a photo. Choose Photo, then tap the shutter button or press either volume button.

Exposure is automatic, but you can set the exposure manually for the next shot by tapping an object or area on the screen. With an iSight camera, tapping the screen sets the focus as well as the exposure. Face detection is temporarily turned off. To lock the exposure and focus until you tap the screen again, touch and hold until the rectangle pulses.
Choose Video, then tap the Shutter button or press either volume button to start and stop recording.
If Location Services is turned on, photos and videos are tagged with location data that can be used by apps and photo-sharing websites. See Privacy.
You can edit photos (to rotate, auto-enhance, apply a filter, remove red-eye, or crop) and trim videos, right on iPad. See Edit Photos And Trim Videos
Simultaneously press and release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons. The screenshot is added to your Camera Roll.
HDR (high dynamic range) helps you get great shots, even in high-contrast situations. The best parts of three quick shots, taken at different exposures (long, normal, and short), are blended together into a single photo.
(iPad 3rd generation or later) Tap HDR. For best results, keep both iPad and the subject still.
Go to Settings > Photos and Camera.

Photos and videos you take are saved in your Camera Roll. With Photo Stream, new photos also appear in My Photo Stream on iPad and your other iOS devices and computers. See My Photo Stream
