Reviews for Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit

I haven't had ANY problems with either connector. They both do what they say they will do. Both work perfectly with my iPad2 and my Nikon D7000. I love the convenience!

I am using this with a 3rd generation iPad and my Canon EOS Rebel XSi, connected via USB. It works great! My SanDisk Extreme III SDHC cards also work great in the card reader.

I shoot RAW photos, and I use my iPad to backup, review and select images. When I return home, I download the images from my iPad to my Mac for further editing. This all works great, the images transfer fine, and there is no loss of quality in the transfer.

The transfer speed from camera to iPad seems slightly slower than from camera to Mac, but it is very acceptable.

The higher resolution display on the 3rd generation iPad makes it perfect for previewing photos, and this kit makes it easy to do so. Highly recommended!

Works great for importing pics, but you can't save pics to your SD card from the ipad2! Needs to be updated.

With iPad Camera Connection Kit connected to my iPad 2 w/latest IOS, I also was NOT able to get it to work. I moved Jpeg Pics from camera's SD folder to a DCIM folder on the same SD and still nothing. There was no indication of it being connected or insufficient power as some have stated. It's like the iPad didn't even know it was there. I would've expected Apple to develop & provide a quick resolution.

I am terribly disappointed with this product. Apple leads you to believe that you can import your videos and then view them on your iPad. Though it will import videos, it will not play them. After hours of trying to figure out why, it turns out there is no reason for it not to work with my particular camera which saves video in mp4 format. Though I do like that I can import pictures directly from my camera or from my phone, I was mainly interested in using this product for the ease of saving and viewing home videos. Hopefully it is a software glitch that they will fix soon.

Really love the iPad BUT why why why didn't it come with USB/SD connectivity built in!!

This is right up their with not backing up applications like entries in iCal in your time machine!?! Plus many more.

Otherwise happy.

I have a Nikon D600 and a Nikon V1.. I shoot RAW with a wide selection of cards. Lexar Pro, Sandisk, Panasonic with varied sizes and speeds. I have an iPad 2 and iPad mini which I plan to use to save my images on while travelling and then upload to my iMac when I get home.

After reading all the bad reviews I was having seconds thoughts about this product. As a long term Apple junkie I had to give it a try. Well, I used every card I have in each camera with both the card reader and USB connector and it worked just as smooth as silk and all images loaded on to the iPad 2 without any problems.

My next concern was would the RAW images transfer from the iPad to the IMac intact or would they convert to jpeg. The RAW transferred over without issue and I am happily editing.

I liked this product so much that I bought the connector for the IPad mini the next day.

Apple has never let me down on any product and I have them all. My only negative comment about Apple is .... What's going on with your stock price? We miss you Steve.

I got it when I had the 1st. iPad and it worked great! I even used it a couple of times connecting the iPhone 4 to the iPad and retrieved all the pictures in Camera Roll. Now with the New iPad (2012) I did the same and even connected my Nikon D80 and was able to get all the pictures in the SD card. It didn't matter if I plugged in the card or the camera itself. Amazing product, and with iPhoto for iPad I can even retouch the pics and send to clients right away!

I have an iPad 3rd generation and I could not get the SD card to be recognized.

Tried to use s everal times ! Ipad2 did not read sd card as web site stated.
