    Default New ipad camera connection kit.

    Just went and bought my other half the new ipad 3 and saw this coolCamera connection kit, for your ipad.


    You can connect your cammera to your ipad or the sd card of your camera, and it supports JPEG and RAW images.


    Thought id just let you guys know 'bout it.

    Yeah, you get 2 connectors and one you use for your SD card and the other one you connect your camera via USB to the conector.

    I have a pic but dunno how to upload it from my ipad.

    Best of all it's R299

    Never tried... Not enough space on an ipad for any biggish shoot... I did use it a few time during workshops, but the SD cards from the Fuji X100 worked better

    CF card in camera, camera to ipad via connection kit and camera USB cable. Ipad picks it up automatically once you switch camera on and asks if you want to import into iphoto. Works well. Just takes forever to copy.

    Bringing up an old gripe. I want the camera connection kit purely to preview pics, not clutter space with pics I would down load later to my computer, hence R300 kit seldom used and gathering dust!

    No, the eye-fi card creates it's own hotspot.

    You know you can delete the photos on your iPad, right?
