Reviews for Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit

Ok to import. But when I send them in a mail I can't see them in the mail body. The photos taken with the iPad camera showed correctly.

it doesnt work with my cell phone. my sd card has 300 photos and it can only read 1 photo. dont buy this. you will regret it

I got the iPad product for christmas excited to get my pictures on here I went right out to buy this connector kit. At first I got 'this USB device isn't supported' I updated operating system from 3.2 to 4.2 and now it doesn't recognize that I have plugged anything in using both my micro sd card plugged into an adaptor and USB ports anybody got any helpful advice???

This was a handy little device, that is prior to iOS 4.2 Previously I transferred pictures from memory cards to iPad via usb card reader. It worked flawlessly for ease of transfer. Now it suddenly cannot supply sufficient power via usb. Initially I thought Apple engineers had nailed a very usefull/flexible accessory. Apparently they accidently made it too good and they had to reduce its capabilities. I would like to hear the rationale for this change. Still usefull but now I carry too many camera connector cords.

The CCK requires photos and videos that are to be imported to be in a folder called DCIM. Unfortunately, not all cameras have or use a DCIM folder. My situation is my photos are stored in the DCIM folder and import just fine via the SD card connector. My HD videos however are not stored in the DCIM folder and won't import. Not sure why Apple just doesn't have the iPad search the mounted device for any and all photos and videos and import them all. Seems to me to be a software fix.

As for the USB connector, it tells me my camera is not supported and after dismissing the message twice, it then imports the photos with no problem. Again no video.

The importing keeps getting shuts down when I am importing photos to the iPad..... Why????? It only works when I selected a few photos....

Good
-----
It supports many different storage devices.
It comes with two adapters, SD and USB.
It works on both iphone and ipad, though a iphone gives a annoying warning.
It imports pictures and some videos from older cameras/camcorders.

Bad
-----
I take most of my pictures and videos with a modern camcorder.
Modern HD camcorders ALL use AVCHD (MTS, M2TS) file format.
This kit provides no way of viewing MTS files. I can view MTS files from my tiny HD camcorder, but I cannt view them on a ipad. Me thinks the Apple A4 chip is all hype.

I have to lug a Windows laptop if I want to view videos on a screen larger then the one built onto camcorders (Quicktime does NOT support AVCHD, Windows 7 natively supports AVCHD).

No way of off loading files to the Internet.

I bought the camera kit to upload picture on to iPad to share on my FB account, but it doesn't work. It only goes straight to the iPad and all you can do is slideshow presentation.

The whole reason I got this thing was to quickly view pics from my camera's SD card. Not to have to sit and wait while it imports a few hundred, or for me to have to pick and choose (one at a time) which ones to import just to see if they are blurry or not.

Come on Apple, who thought mandatory importing was a good idea?

I bought this product to transfer photos from my iPhone to my iPad so that I can edit them on the bigger screen of the iPad. Unfortunately, the transferred iPhone photos are constrained to 600x600 for some reason. I am not sure why this product is doing this. As such, I'm greatly disappointed.
