New ipad pro 2020 - portrait mode

Hello,

No model of iPad Pro supports capturing portrait mode photos from the rear iSight camera.

Seriously?...

You didn't do any research before purchasing an expensive iPad Pro?...

Really?...

One of the cameras is a wide depth of field panoramic camera.

The other lens is the for the LIDAR sensor for use with AR and ARKit on the iPad.

If you do not like your iPad Pro, if you have had this iPad Pro for less than 14 days, return it for a full refund and purchase a alternative device/tablet that meets your needs.

BTW, Apple is doing just fine being Apple-centric!

Love the new IPad Pro 2020. Does anyone know the rational that Apple used to cripple ISight camera because it does not allow rear camera portrait mode? Can Apple please make the IPad camera great and include things like full portrait mode?

Pro photographer’s use it everyday for flow and back end but the possibilities are endless with the IPad format. Heck there is even space for a medium format sensor. The large format “viewfinder” offers fun possiblity.

I just discovered this recently and what a bummer. Portrait mode on selfies only? Such a waste on having too lenses at the back.

I have just acquired a 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 and really want to be able to use Portrait mode other than for self portraits. Photographing flowers with a blurred background is a key feature of my photography

Honestly, why is this NOT a feature. $1000 for a device and it can’t have a simple function that I’m sure isn’t hard for apple to add. I use my iPad to sell vintage clothing online. Until now the iPads cameras were almost useless for good photos unless in nice outdoor daylight. Makes it hard to have a device that does everything you need. But I can always use 3rd party camera app Halide.

Good shout mate,

others: you need to actually feed back to Apple’s iPad Team with exactly what your saying here. Use the link! I just did and I said what a disappointment this feature omission is. Really spoilt my day and my new toy time.

Tell Them, not just us

As excited as I was to finally get the iPad Pro 2020 I can’t help but feel cheated. The excitement just wasn’t there. Perhaps the COVID era, who knows. Things that are suppose to be simple, sometimes aren’t. Had issues with wifi ( since been resolved🤞) Then clearing my history issues (had to go into settings) Now to find out there is no portrait mode (Except in selfies) Ugh!! Somebody please tell me it gets better and worth the money!

I’ve been saying this since the first day my new iPad Pro arrived. With out a doubt, not having portrait mode has been the biggest disappointment. Everything else fantastic but this was just a dumb decision on Apple’s part. My loyalty to Apple products has definitely taken a hit.

You really need to make portrait taking from the rear camera. Who wants their own portrait, I surely don’t.

Absolutely, everyone who feels this is important, should use the link I provided above to let Apple know their thoughts. Apple won't respond to it, but they will read it.

Then Apple needs to patch that in an update, like yesterday. It’s inane the iPhone can, but the more powerful iPad can’t...

The first gen iPad Pro supported it. I’m very surprised the newest one doesn’t.

It seems pretty stupid NOT to be able to use portrait mode on the rear facing camera given how expensive the new iPad pros cost. With their super fancy camera and LiDar lens. An iPhone X can take portrait on its rear facing regular camera. Unbelievable!

Seriously?

Then why there are more than 1 camera in the rear side? Is it to showcase same like other brands? If iPhone 11Pro has the feature, then why can’t apple’s latest device has it? I wasted my money.. Not only this, neither the pages app nor installed MS Word supports the same features which 5 years old MS Office apps has. Apple must start thinking ‘Apple centric’ to ‘Customer Centric’..
