    Worth the price over off brands

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have purchased this as a gift for my mother and both my siblings and finally decided to purchase one for myself. I use it with The New iPad. It is easy plug and play, no need to download an app to use it. Adding this made it really easy to veiw my photos on the go without having to carry my laptop in addition to everyting else. I have tried a couple different off brand card readers for the iPad but I a much happier with this. I have an Otterbox case on my iPad and although it is a tight fit, this adapter it the only one I have tried that fits without having to remove the case.

    Pretty Good Product... If you manipulate things!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    You get two products in the box, a USB and an SD card reader. Both work very well and instantly choose what pictures you want to import. Even better when you learn how to manipulate the data! The readers (OS) are set up to only read certain file types in a certain directory. Once you figure this out you can actually get almost anything onto the iPad using one of the card readers. For instance, rename a text doc with a jpg extension, put int the the right directory, choose it to import (you won't see an image obviously) and then use a file management app to move the "jpg" file to another directory, rename it back to what it should be and then open it with quick office or even pages... Boom, no itunes to deal with! You can also reverse this process. So if you're a hacker wanting to "buck the system" you can do it with this device and the right apps.... (Not for the everyday user if you're faint at heart though!)

    Timesaver!!!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I personally do not like synching my photos that I have on my computer via iTunes. It takes forever, and if you make any changes, it erases your previous photos. With this device, I use an SD card (SD or SDHC) to transfer photos I already have on my computer to my iPad quickly. The trick I've learned as one other reviewer said, is to create a DCIM folder on the SD card before copying files to it. (of course you don't have to do this if the card came directly from your camera.) I also do the same for videos I've taken with my digital camera. If you've re-named the files, just re-name them back to similar names that your camera automatically does, like CIMG1234.JPG or CIMG1234.AVI. Your iPad will recognize the files and import them. Great timesaver, and it's amazing how great the photos and videos look on the iPad.

    I love pictures!! I take the camera connect with me when we have family events. I take my sisters & moms memory cards upload the pictures to my iPad and voila, I have their pictures instantly. It beats waiting for them to send them to me. I wish we could export pictures from our iPad to the memory card. The upload of pictures takes no time at all, well if you don't have 1,000 or more to do. It tells you if the pictures were already downloaded, so no duplication. I even showed a friend who has an iPad, and she went out and bought one. Great Item!

    Great to Have Some Connectivity

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This product performs as advertised and will not disappoint. There are two plug-in products in the package - one with an iPad connection on one end and a USB on the other (which is for connecting directly to your digital camera). The second plug-in item has the iPad connection on one end and an SD card reader slot on the other. This provides all of the connectivity available for the iPad, and are two items that should be included in the iPad package, but since it is not, I recommend you purchase this.

    This kit contains two adapters - one allowing use of SD card, the other providing USB support. The USB port canbe used to connect headphones, keyboards, etc as long as their power consumption is low. Also to transfer photos and h.264 videos from USB thumb drives (place them in a DCIM folder)> Videos will be available (once transferred) in the Photo's app. You can use this same video trick on an SD card.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    this device has worked great. I take a lot of digital photographs and like the ease of downloading my pictures for additional storage and viewing on my Ipad. When I travel I can now carry my Ipad instead of a loptop computer. The Ipad and digital camera connection kit fit in my camera bag with little additional weight and provide fast access to review my photo's

    SO I WENT TO NEW YORK WITH MY SONS CHOIR AND INSTEAD OF HAVING TO HAND MOVE ALL PICS FROM CAMERA TO PAD I WAS ABLE TO PLUG NOT ONLY THE SD CARD INTO THE UNIT BUT THE CAMERA TOO! WOOHOO! I LOVE IT AND I NOW TAKE MORE PICTURES BECAUSE THERE IS NO BIG HASSEL TRYING TO GET MORE SD CARDS INTO THE CAMERA OR DELETING PIC BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH ROOM! IF YOU DON'T BUY ANY OTHER ITEM FOR YOUR PAD YOU MUST MUST MUST BUY THIS AND ITS NOT AT A BAD PRICE EITHER. BETTER THAN BUYING MORE SD CARDS.

    Just picked this up and it is the perfect match to my nikon d-80. I can take a few shots then remove the sd card and upload to my iPad in seconds to make sure the shots came out how I wanted them. I shoot RAW and the iPad reads it just fine and for being a 9mb file each it is rather quick too. Highly recommend it to all interested. Haven't tested the USB interface yet and probably won't because the sd reader do plenty

    Works well with Plug and Play Ease

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The camera connector kit comes with two connectors. One with an SD slot, the other a USB connector intended to be connected directly to the camera. A pleasant surprise with this, it it can also be used to connect other low powered USB devices. The main one I was happy about was the ability to connect a card reader as one of my cameras uses the larger Compact Flash (CF) memory cards. I have also connected one of Apples USB Keyboards. USB Hard Drives are out, unless they are externally powered. I know a lot of folks felt Apple should have included these in the box. I don't know that I agree with that, as not all iPad users will use the Pad for uploading photographs and therefore many iPad users will never have a use for them. The only two complaints I have (1) As another viewer suggested it is two more items to carry along with the iPad or in your camera bag, and possibly misplace/lose (2) It would have been nice if they would have included (or offer separately), a larger module that would hold CF cards without the need for the cable. or card reader.

    Does exactly what it says

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I use this with my Canon 50D. Being that the Canon only uses CF cards, I've only used the USB portion of this kit. It picks up the photos nicely, but the previews are small. The iPad surprised me by being able to recognize RAW files, but it handles them well. Great to snap some photos and so a client on the fly.

    Works better than expected

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was concerned about this product as Apple could not tell me if what I was trying to do would work. A few of my camera cards are xD which Apple doesn't say that they support. So I currently have an SD/MMC/MS/xD card reader which is USB. One of the connectors has a USB port so what I wanted to know was would I be able to download my pictures if I used this product. YIPPIE...it does work, but you need to make sure your IPAD is fully charged. Then plug in the connector, then the card reader and lastly the xD card. Otherwise you might get an error that says the reader is using too much power. I took the IPAD instead of the laptop to download my pictures. Works like a charm.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    If you take a lot of photos and don't want to hassle with transferring photos from iTunes, this product make the process much easier. Just load in your SD memory card or connect your USB cable and with a press of a button your photos are transferred to your iPad. You can also transfer pics from your iPhones as well.

    Great 2 piece accessory. SD card reader transfers pictures and video with zero fuss. The camera connector works just as well. There are also other uses for the USB camera connector, like microphones and the like. All in all, nice little addition. Should have been included with the iPad.

    Works but has limitations and poor documentation

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this product to import photos to my iPad and due to poor documentation and knowledge of the people who sell this product (including Apple) it was less than a positive experience. Once I did figure it out it worked well within the limitation of the adapter and Apple's software on the iPad. If you are using your SDHC card straight from the camera then this product works as advertised and is a good buy for those who want to use the product in that way. This product will NOT recognize .jpg photo files that are copied to a SDHC card from a computer. For those of us who copy, process and rename photos on our computer after the fact using Adobe or Nikon NX2 or other type of software this product is NOT a good fit. In order for the iPad software to recognize photo files that are not straight from a digital camera you have to: 1. Create a directory named DCIM on your SDHC card 2. Rename any photos you want to import to your iPad in the following format: (P0001, P0002, P0003, etc.) 3. Copy the renamed files to the DCIM directory. The iPad software will then recognize the files and begin the process of loading the files so they can be imported. Until this is done the iPad simply does nothing. I may be the exception to the average user but I am sure that there are other photographers out there that post process their photos in a work flow fashion and hopefully this review will prevent some frustration on their part. It would be helpful if Apple would remove this limitation in a future firmware update or add a simple paragraph to their documentation that would spell out the limitation or restriction.

    Had Ipad 1 for about a year before I know that these devices were out there. Easy to upload photos from SD cards. I upload all my pics and then delete the ones that I do not want. Makes it much easier to see all your pics than to scroll thru on your camera delete the one you don't want Pros: Easy to use. Quick upload. Cons: Not able to upload photos from SD card to Ipod or Iphone. Not able to download photos from Ipad to SD Card. I have only used the SD card reader. Sure that the USB reader behaves the same.
