What's the storage capacity of your iPad?0 Mine is 16GB, the size of an intermediate SD card.
You can get those adaptors on ebay for a lot less. Of course, they are made in China, unlike Apple products, which are made in... Oh, wait a minute. :D

I have an iPad, first generation, and a Nikon D5100 I have a Eye-Fi SD chip in the camera and it can be set to download to the iPad. There are many other ways to transfer photos to the iPad. I am sure other members will have some different solutions.

Warning: don't delete your SD/CF cards before you have successfully downloaded on your return. First time I did not carry my laptop on a trip, when I returned to download my iPad as there was not enough space on the laptop at home, it started deleting the my Bali images on the iPad. Fortunatly I had not reused any of my cards.
A friend downloading to her new iPad reused her cards and on returning the download to a new MaBook Pro somehow messed up (user error?) and nearly all her Burma images were gone.
As always keep your images in multiple places. I find viewing images on my iPad invaluable when traveling but still have my MacBook Air for the ultimate download AND backup that daily. Play and shot safe.

Last year I went to Washington to see my daughter and I went to the Best Buy and got a cable that connected my camera "Canon T2i to my wife's I Pad mini and we were able to view my raw photo's with some conversion program that we downloaded for free. I forget what the program was but you should be able to find something to work just by browsing like we did.

I'm heading to Alaska on Aug. 6th for a land and sea tour. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with downloading photos from their dslr to an iPad. I would like to be able to download photos while I'm there instead of waiting until I get home and sure don't want to drag my laptop along.
As already mentioned here, its easier to take a few memorycards with you. But I can imagine that you sometimes want to check some of your pictures on a bigger screen. That's a proper use of the iPad, as long as you limit the number of downloads. And it takes to much time to copy loads of pictures from your camera to the iPad, a waste of time during a beautiful tour.

Thanks. I wasn't going to download everything, but thought it would be fun to do some things. Oh well. Maybe I'll rethink this whole thing.

I download Raw and jpeg to my ipad and can then successfully upload to my PC. However there is a downside. Even though I have 64gb iPad the memory soon fills up. The only way to delete is one by one which is very time consuming. If anyone knows of a quicker way of deleting please let me know.
If you don't want to take your laptop I would take more cards as they are so cheap these days.

He's wrong. I have personally used my iPad for review and storage. The trick is to shoot in RAW plus jpg. You will view the raw image on the iPad but both are there. It's easy to download all files once one is home.
Once the images are on the iPad, is there a way to transfer them to a computer other than the Cloud?

Even on a PC that doesn't have iTunes installed you can plug the iDevice in. Windows will ask what you want to do with it. Open to view files, the iPad/iPhone will only allow you to get to the photos, copy and paste where you want.

You probably already have the info you need, but thought i would send this anyway. I am just returning home from a 4 week trip to Alaska. I have had no trouble downloading pictures, all raw, to my iPad, from my cannon 7d. Just bought the transfer cable at Walmart & connected it to my camera USB & it worked great.
Hope the weather is as beautiful for you as it was for us.
