LED is really good

The LED flash on the back is much stronger than I would have thought. When i take video with zero light, its perfectly lit.

Apple knocked this one out of the park...

Yeah man, I've just got around to testing the low-lighting camera performance. The LED is bright enough to light up a nice sized room. And the picture quality is pretty amazing for a phone camera.

I took video outside last night of my dogs and I was amazed at how well it lit up the area.

Hopefully this will finally kill off all of those flashlight apps.

Hopefully this will finally kill off all of those flashlight apps.

........and spark a new LED flashlight app....if Apple doesn't reject it.

You can already do that though. Just open up the video camera and set flash to on. Developers don't even have an API to access the LED last time I checked.

Ha....neat....and I thought it was only for stills.

Yeah I'm actually surprised at how fully featured Apple went on the new camera app. They tend to leave little things like that out. (Points to lack of text notification options.)
