ok, here's my question, I purchased my iPad, ONLY to use it for demo'ing my photography portfolio, and watching movies during my frequent flights....

BUT I was wondering if there's a cable that would allow me to plug in

It's a mini usb cable,

That to the bottom connection, AND let me file through pictures on a camera?

I've found the video out cable and I LOVE it, I use it all the time in hotel rooms and even at home...

thanks in advance

Are you talking about the camera connection kit,that will do what you want to do with your photos. I have been waiting almost a month for mine to arrive. If you can find one in the St.Louis area you will be lucky.

Al

Yeah I guess, I just saw that in another thread... I have the usb to mini usb cable, all I'd need is that adapter kit....

I just wonder if it just comes up under another tab in the pictures section?

Look in the accessories forum,there you will see a picture of the kit,or go to the apple web site and check out the accessories for the ipad,

Al.

Thanks Al..

Yeah I saw it, I may just buy one from Amazon.. and see, it can't hurt, I'm just wondering since I photograph in .Raw format if it'll recognize that just fine... if so I'm golden...

Al, I am shocked! Here we have someone else from St. Louis and you didn't let me know!

Welcome to the forum Step! Scott in Wentzville here.

I don't think it will recognize .raw. I shoot both .jpg and .raw on my Canon so that I can put the jpg's on the iPad.

According to Apple:

Well, that will be interesting to see; since RAW formats vary from camera to camera even within the same brand.

Attn all posters from the St.Louis area, should we form a group and talk about the Cards,Rams, Blues,or iPad, we could also meet in the donut shop in old Florissant.Scott can buy the coffee and donuts. How,s that Scot.?

Al from Hazelwood.

Are you sure the donut shop is still open? We went to see our son and daughter-in-law yesterday in Florissant. They live off of Patterson Road and we were shocked at the number of businesses along 67 that had been boarded up! And I am still not used to seeing an open field where the Ford plant was.

Yes its still open in Old Florissant matter of fact its open 24 hours a day,and they have the best I have ever tasted. I live 1.1/2 miles north from the Ford plants open field. So is the invite still valid.

Al.

Ed here in Brentwood.
I can not find the Camera kit anywhere here either,

I am in for the donuts though!

Thats good Ed, we can talk shop with Scott as long as he paying for the donuts, I'm cheap I can only eat one.

Al.

And you're probably gonna want coffee too I'll bet!

Scott, we can always say they sell camera connection kits at the donut shop,that way we can get a commision on what we bring in. And yes I want coffee with my one donut.

Al.

I want the camera connection kit. None in stock in West Palm Beach, I guess I'll order from Apple.

I saw in another thread that someone ordered one 5 weeks ago and it just shipped! The website does say there is a 2-3 week wait time. There are some on Amazon, but for way lots more money.

Im always down for food.... lol... i live in south county...
