Abstract

A workshop using iPads to train photographers who are blind, visually impaired and sighted is evaluated using a model of inclusive technical capital. It was hypothesized that all participants would find iPad apps accessible. It was found that iPads were good introductory devices, but experienced participants who are blind and sighted still preferred specialized cameras.
