Camera Settings
Select which camera your booth will use. While the iPad’s built-in cameras are the most common choice, you can also integrate a DSLR for enhanced photo quality.
Camera Choices
Choose the camera hardware that best fits your event's goals and physical setup.
Using the iPad's built-in cameras is the simplest setup and provides a reliable experience for guests.
Front Camera (Recommended): Most setups use the front-facing (selfie) camera so guests can see themselves in the live preview and interact with the screen naturally.
Rear Camera: The rear camera can be used for specialty setups where the iPad is not guest-facing or if you have a staff member operating the booth.
Field of View:
Normal: The standard focal length for iPad photos.
Wide: Provides a larger field of view to capture more of the background or larger groups. Note: This is only supported on certain iPad models.
Other camera settings, such as exposure and white balance, can be adjusted in the app after you launch the booth.
You can integrate a DSLR camera to achieve professional, high-quality photos with shallow depth of field or better low-light performance.
Compatibility: This feature is supported on select Canon DSLR models.
Requirements: Using a DSLR requires additional equipment, including specific cables and mounting hardware.
iPad Camera Setup
While you can adjust camera settings in your online dashboard, we strongly recommend testing these settings on the iPad physically during your event setup to ensure the alignment and field of view match your backdrop.
Open the Camera settings card.
Toggle between the Front and Rear camera.
Select between Normal and Wide field of view (if supported by your device).
DSLR Setup
To ensure a stable connection, the DSLR must be configured directly on the iPad. This allows the app to establish a handshake with the camera hardware properly.
