Reviews for Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit

So easy to use, worked first time, import nice and easy, options to delete from Camera once imported. Only tried 720HD @ 50 fps, but this is the most common setting for action. Retina display is perfect and watching on the TV using Apple TV is great for family viewing. Tip, keep recordings short or edit first and post straight to Facebook.

This does not read my SD card ? What a waste of money. I want to download video from my camera onto iPad? Bought this adaptor that does not work!

If I connect my Canon 350 to my iPad (3rd Gen, iOS 6.1) I got "device not supported".

If I connect my Olympus TG 620 (purchased today) I got "device uses too much power".

How comes? Am I doing anything wrong?

If I connect my iPhone 5, it works.

If I connect the SD card from my Olympus, it works. Cannot connect the Canon 350 card, as it uses Compact Flash.

Please Apple fix this thing!

When I load pictures from the SD card that has been in the camera it works, but when I upload other photos to the SD card from my computer to transfer them it doesn't work. The same camera, same tag, same SD card. I was under the impression this would make uploading photos easier than syncing to iTunes. Not! Oh.. and the only idiot is one who answers a question without understanding the question first.

I loooove the camera connection kit! It's so fast, and easy to use. I love putting my photos on my iPad instead of having to load them on my laptop. Once your photos on on your iPad, it makes it easy to post to Facebook or share with friends.

I plugged the USB adapter into my iPad2 (iOS 6.01), connected the USB cable and switched on my 7D. Almost immediately a preview of everything on the card popped up. I picked out what I wanted to transfer and it just worked! Repeated the same with my 5D2 with the same excellent results. Once onboard I could view, edit, email or upload to FB, etc. Wish there was a CF card reader for pro cameras but the wired connection works fine.

What a great device for travel and uploading images in the field or around town. I've read so many bad reviews I almost didn't buy this device but decided to give it a go, and I'm really glad I did. I assume Apple fixed earlier problems as the Camera Connection Kit just works: no special settings, delays or messin' around. I wish it worked with an iPhone as that sure would be handy for quick uploads on the run but I can settle for my iPad.

Love it! Bought it transfer pics to my ipad2 and that's what it does! Handy product when away from my desktop and want to dump pics off the camera or just to transfer them to use with iMovie app or photo apps.

Both my iPad min and my latest-gen iPad 4 complain that this is "not supported by this device". Both completely up to date with the latest iOS version.
Why is this device sold with a picture of an iPad on the box when it is not suitable for purpose? Very poor Apple. "It just works"? No.

I've only tried out the SD Card reader. I hadn't thought about the possibilities that open with the other reader so I'll come back to that in a later review.
I have a Canon Rebel EOS DSLR and a Canon Powershot (I actually use the SD cards in both cameras as well). I also shoot the majority of my photos in RAW format. So I was a little hesitant to think this would really open my photos AND allow me to import and edit. I plugged in the reader and voila! Photos opened, I could select the photos I wanted and import them, then edit in an editor.
I've read multiple reviews that say that it doesn't work, I'm wondering with updates if I'll have problems but my iPad has a version 5 on the software, and my husbands has a version 6. Both have no issues opening the photos from the Photo App. It took me a second to refind the photos but once I started going to the built in Photo App I was able to find them there. - iPad 2, 16G. WiFi only.

Doesn't work with my Fuji W3 or the SD Card.
