Reviews for Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit

I have found that the 2 piece photo connector is fabulous. The sd card reader transferred all my slr photos to my iPad2 flawlessly. The USB connector allowed me to transfer my iPhone 4 pics directly from the phone to my iPad2. Beats using my PC (that I hate) any time.

This is an absolutely awesome addition to your luggage for those trips when you expect to be taking hundreds if not thousands of photos. SOOOO easy to use its fool proof.....

Works great. All my SD cards can now be downloaded to my iPad. Love it!

I use my camera to take photos at the local surf club, transfer them to the iPad, edit at the clubhouse with the person who does the newsletter, then email them that person for the newsletter. It means that all the photos are done in real time, and in the format the editor wants.

We are going to Disney World in a few weeks and bought the camera adapter to we can dump the photos from our point and shoot, and our other family member's cameras, onto the iPad at night.

I played around with it today and it couldn't be simpler to use.

Need to reclaim space from your iPhone after shooting HD video? Only one iPad Camera Connection Kit is needed. Just use it and the cable that comes with the iPhone.

At first I thought I would need two of these and a male-to-male USB wire, but I was only suffering from a momentary lapse of logic.

I'm not a professional photographer but my wife and I travel constantly and importing 10 gig of images per trip is not unusual. I have never had an SD card the adapter can't read. We travel with a Nikon D80 and Canon SD1200 and a G7. They all work just fine. Yes, if you plug in a product that requires high current it may not work (I don't know). However, this product delivers what Apple represents. Anything beyond that is icing on the cake.

Just returned from a week of thorough testing. The iPad returned a not supported message when connected directly to the camera's USB port, but read a Zios CF card reader every time.

Using the SD card reader for pictures taken with a Canon point-and-shoot was easy as well.

After reading a lot of mixed reviews, I was even more confused than Einstein creating his theory of relativity. All bad reviews are actually not because of the product being faulty or its functionality being faulty rather the bad reviewers either have bad quality SD cards which iPad doesn't recognize or they have bad cameras which do not connect . I have tested a Transcend 32GB SD HC Class 10 card and a Toshiba 8GB SD HC Class 4 card, both of them worked perfectly. The camera I connected to the kit was a Canon 60D Digital SLR and what luck didn't give me any problems at all too. So to conclude the kit works as described in the store without any regrets I love the accessebility it offers on the go. Btw I tested the kit on an iPad 2nd generation so people who have written bad reviews about this kit might have an older iPad or an older software version. I suggest before rating anything people should at least check if their iPad isn't at fault. i would give it 6 stars if possible as I'm a professional photographer and this kit lowers the weight of my total baggage by around 40% and removes the need to carry a laptop everywhere when iPad is such appropriately sized.
