Ok so i have owned my iPad 2 since launch and honestly, never taken 1 video with it. I went outside today and took a short 1-2min clip of my son on his big wheel, holding the ipad sideways ( i think thats how your suppose to hold it to record at 720p )

While recording i noticed the video would at times start having a weird black glitch ( trees, the sky, etc ) certain objects would turn black for just a quick moment, like a glitch! Even when i playback the video, the black glitch that comes and goes is there ( it happened 3 times within a 1 min video )

has anyone taken videos? ( not facetime ) with there iPad 2 and notice anything?

( uploading to youtube now, to show you what i mean )

Without seeing the video my guess would be a quick change in focus. Have you restarted it since launch? I'll take a look at the vid once its posted and let you know what I think.

Very interesting. I don't think that is normal at all. Has it been doing that with any videos you have made since then?
