As with any Mac, you can add a handful of funny effects and colorful filters to your photos via the Photo Booth app. The iMac's 720p FaceTime camera performed as well as I expected, capturing my strands of facial hair and birthmarks in fairly high detail. There are also two Thunderbolt 2 ports, which are ideal for connecting to high-speed peripherals (such as large hard drives) and high-resolution external displays.
