Hi Folks, I imagine most of you already know about this feature, but I don't recall knowing about it until this afternoon when I stumbled upon it completely by accident. I think this is pretty darn cool.
I was lying on the floor with the dog snoring against my left side and the cat purring against my right, so I thought I'd hold the iPhone camera at arm's length and try to snap a photo. I launched the native camera app on my iphone 4 running IOS 5, put it in photo mode with auto flash and back-facing camera, held it straight in front of me with the back-facing lens aimed in the general direction of my face, and prepared to snap one of my standard off-center photos. . Next thing I knew, VO started saying," One face, small face, near top edge." I tilted the iPhone a bit and VO announced, "One face, small face, near left edge. I kept tilting the phone until VO announce, "face centered." Then I moved the camera closer to my face and VO announced, "One face, large face, face centered." I then switched cameras to the front camera and got the same results. I also tried this in video mode but VO was silent. Lastly, I tried aiming the back facing camera at my Black Lab's face but could not get VO to recognize her. The cat decided she didn't want to be part of this experiment and ran off somewhere. I wonder what other IOS accessibility marvels I'm missing. <grin> Cheers, Bryan <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html> or at the public Mail Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/>.
