Reviews for Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit

To my big surprise I just discovered that the USB connection works very well with my digital amplifiers USB interface. Very clear and detailed sound with HD Track recordings...

I use this to hook my iPad with Retina Display to my Behringer Mixer using the Lightning to 30-pin adapter (cordless) and Behringer UCA222. Also works great with cameras but my old Sony Bloggie is not supported (uses too much power). Apple please help!

Using ipad 3 the camera connection kit works great with the Flip mino hd 3rd gen video camera. Just plug it in and all the files upload direct from the camera. I also use iMovie. The price is a bit steep at £25.00 but then it's an Apple!

Just got one of these and using with Sony dsc-hx5. Initially got the error USB requires too much power. However a tip on another forum suggested looking at camera settings and turning the USB power function off. Found it under memory card settings turned it off and hey presto works a treat. Worth checking your camera settings if you get this error

I bought this product with my ipad 3. What I wanted to do was load RAW files on the ipad from my Canon 7D which only uses compact flash cards. I was a bit concerned about the CCK from other reviews. I spoke to a sales assistant in the Regent Street Apple store and he assured me it would work. I tried with the camera direct to ipad, perfect. Then I tried with my multi-chip card reader , that did not work as the ipad did not have enough power to run it. I ordered a single chip card reader from eBay, perfect again. The largest compact flash card I use is 8GB so I can't be sure if larger ones will work,

Superb, connected my Sony NEX-5 and it displayed all my photos, asking which ones to import. With iPhoto on the iPad as well, am constructing some fabulous journals of our French holiday!

Does what its meant, after getting this my mac is seeing less and less of me

Bought this with a few doubts, having read some of the negative reviews, but for what it's worth to anyone thinking of this, I have had no problems whatsoever. With an iPad2, the SD card reader instantly read and uploaded RAW files from a Canon S95 and a Panasonic Lumix G1, and the USB connector again flawlessly connected to a Nikon D200 and uploaded RAW + JPEG files. Absolutely invaluable for instant checking of files on a shoot or backup on holiday etc. Can do the same with a laptop I suppose, but the iPad is so much lighter and instantly available, perfect for showing shot previews to a client out in the field!

I was a little wary of this product because of some of the negative reviews however it works perfectly, my camera is a Canon EOS60D and it works with the card reader and the cable, imports photos in RAW & JPEG format quickly and will import and play HD video shot with the camera, my iPad is a 64gb 3rd gen and I'm really happy with my purchase.
