Product Description
With the iPad Camera Connection Kit, it's incredibly easy to download photos from your digital camera to your iPad so you can view them on the gorgeous iPad display and share them with family and friends. The kit includes two connectors, each with a different interface: The Camera Connector features a USB interface. Just plug it into the dock connector port on your iPad, then attach your digital camera or iPhone using a USB cable (not included). Use the SD Card Reader to import photos directly from your camera's SD card. Connect it to your iPad, then insert your digital camera's SD card into the slot. After you make the connection, your iPad automatically opens the Photos app, which lets you choose which pictures to import, then organizes the selected photos into albums. When you sync iPad to your PC or Mac, the photos on your iPad are added to your computer's photo library. iPad and the Camera Connection Kit support standard photo formats, including JPEG and RAW.

5 out of 5 stars Works as Advertised - Well made   September 6, 2010
M. Shell (Smithfield, VA USA)
I bought the iPAD for when we travel. It saves hauling my 17" laptop (not a MAC)around. All I needed was a way to upload my pictures so that I could post on the Internet while we traveled. This product met all my expectations.

Pros: Very easy to use. I attached the camera connector to my iPAD, inserted my camera card, and presto, the images appeared and were ready to import. The connectors appear to be well made. I expect nothing less from Apple.

Cons: If anything, the price. I paid 40.00 with shipping included. However, I had to stretch to come up with a con. This is a good product and highly recommended.

This Product costs $29.99 at Apple's Website with $4.00 S&H. I always check Amazon first because I have Amazon Prime and appreciate the free shipping on many items.

People aren't stupid-What a price gouge!



5 out of 5 stars Great for vacations   September 2, 2010
Josh (Seattle, WA)
In Maui and using it to transfer the pictures of the day to my iPad. Works quick and it's easy way to view pics with my wife each night and email some home to family. If you have an iPad it's worth having. The USB connection does work with USB keyboards.

What's going on here? The listed price is $20 over what the Apple Store charges for these?


5 out of 5 stars Great way to view pictures on vacation, plus it lets you use USB keyboards   August 6, 2010

If you are on vacation and want to view or share the pictures on your camera, the iPad Camera Connection Kit makes it very easy to import pictures from your camera, an SD card, or a thumb drive. You get two adapters that plug into the iPad's dock connector. One adapter provides an SD/SDHC card reader for the iPad. You can just take the memory card out of your phone or camera and the iPad can access and import the pictures. You can even delete the images from the camera after importing them into the iPad. It supports JPEG, TIFF, and many RAW formats.

The second adapter provides a USB port for the iPad. This was designed for cameras or phones with a USB cable so that you could access the pictures without taking out the memory card. This adapter has an undocumented benefit of also working with USB keyboards. If you connect a USB keyboard, the iPad will display a message about the device being unsupported, but the keyboard will work anyways.

You can also hook up a "thumb drive" to the USB port. The iPad will be looking for files in a root folder named DCIM and if you have other images or even videos (in formats supported by the iPad), they can be imported in as well. If your camera uses Compact Flash cards or other types of memory, you can plug a USB card reader into the connector and bring the images in that way. You can even connect an iPhone using the standard dock cable to the USB adapter to import pictures taken on the iPhone.

The biggest drawback is that all of the pictures go into a single gallery. It would have been nice if the iPad could let you create or specify another folder for the pictures.
