By Many Apple switchers and first-time owners quickly notice the video camera that accompanies the latest MacBooks: a tiny square lens and LED light at the top of the screen. That’s your MacBook’s built-in FaceTime camera (and the accompanying microphone), which allows audio and video chatting in iChat, video chatting in FaceTime or a quick, fun series of photos or video clips via Lion’s Photo Booth and iMovie applications. (Some third-party applications can use your MacBook’s camera for things like reading bar codes.) Heck, you can even take your user account photo with your FaceTime camera (in the System Preferences window)! Previous MacBook models included an integrated camera that Apple called the iSight camera. Today’s models, however, use an improved version of the hardware, now rechristened as the FaceTime camera (a name change aimed straight at Lion’s FaceTime video chatting application). Therefore, if your MacBook has a built-in iSight camera, don’t panic — if your laptop meets the other requirements for the FaceTime application, your on-board camera will work just fine. Photo Booth allows you to snap digital pictures just as you did in the old automatic photo booth at your local arcade, but Photo Booth comes complete with visual effects to add pizzazz and punch to your photos.

You can even capture video clips using iMovie and use the footage in all your iLife applications. (If you’ve used the Photo Booth application on an iPad 2, you’re already familiar with how much fun you can have with your images and video clips!) The FaceTime camera’s indicator light glows green whenever you’re taking a snapshot or recording video.. Which, when you think about it, is A Good Thing (especially if you prefer chatting at home in Leisure Mode). Need to quickly get a picture of yourself for use on your web page? Old paint app on computer. Or perhaps your iChat icon needs an update to show off your new haircut. Photo Booth can capture images at 640 x 480 resolution and 32-bit color — and although today’s digital cameras produce a much higher-quality photo, you can’t beat the built-in convenience of Photo Booth for that quick snapshot!

To snap an image in Photo Booth, follow these steps: • Launch Photo Booth from the Applications folder. Here is the application window that appears. (Ignore the rather silly gentleman who wandered into the frame!) Photo Booth features a very different appearance in full-screen mode, complete with a fancy wooden stage and curtain! To try things out full-screen, click View→Enter Full Screen. • (Optional) Choose to take one image, four quick photos as a group, or digital video.
