Help...
I received a Verizon Tablet in late August, a... Ellipsis 10.
This table like others do not have a slot for SD Cards & Flash Drives.
& I would like to know is there a cable that I would have buy that would to connect my Digital Cameras to my tablet?, & if this is possible what type of Cable Connector between the Camera & the Tablet I would have to get?
If I want to load photos on my Tablet I have to use Mini SD Cards, & I use regular size SD Cards!
Some help here!!!

Maybe a stop by a Verizon store would be your best option to figure out tethering options. Always best to ask those who actually know about their own product than to ask a blind question here.
Micro SD's usually come with an SD adapter mount.

There are lots of micro SD to SD adapters available like this one - just Google SD to micro SD:

Regarding your camera to tablet adapter, you didn't mention what camera so not possible to help you there, but if you look up the camera connector (mini USB?) in your manual and do the same for the tablet, finding a cable (assuming the camera can "talk" to the tablet) is as simple as Googling a "...to... cable".

Save your money - the Ellipsis 10 does not support USB OTG, which is required to connect any USB devices to a tablet (from the Verizon Q&A section).

I'm using a Canon's SX50, & Powershot 150, also 2 Nikon Coolpix Pocket Digitals... Coolpix 11 & 16.

Assuming your camera does NOT have wifi capability, try the following.
Use Dropbox. Install it on your computer and your tablet. Load the photos you want to display on your tablet in a Dropbox folder on your computer. In a few minutes they will appear on your tablet, in the Dropbox folder. If you want to use Quickpix or some other application, you can download a copy of FolderSync on your tablet, set up a sync pair - the folder in dropbox and a folder in Quickpix.

The method I would use is to put the cameras SD card in a reader, insert the card reader into a USB A (female) to USB micro B OTG (on the go) cable. If you tablet supports OTG which most recent tablets or cameras do, when you insert the cable into the tablet you should see a pop up saying "USB storage inserted" so then you should be able to move or copy your photos onto the tablet using whatever gallery you have on the tablet.
The image I have attached shows the cable required.
Although I do use this method sometimes, my usual route is using an EyeFi SD card which send my photos to my tablet or phone so a cable is not required.
If I need to move or copy to another device or computer I use an application called "PhotoSync" simply type it into Google Play and install it onto you tablet, you will also need the same application on your PC.
I hope this helps.

He is correct,unless you're tablet suppo r ts USB OTG then you're stuck. I use the Galaxy Note Pro to download my photos to preview,then import to a pc to edit. Most programs for editing on a tablet suck anyway.

It looks like the only connection available is for the charger. How about mailing the photos to it.

You may be able to find something like this - with the connector you have on your tablet.

What cable do you use to charge the battery of that tablet?
I'm not familiar with Verizon tablets, I have a Samsung. There are three ways I have transferred photos to that tablet:
1. I use the same cable that I use to charge the tablet's battery - just stick the USB end into a USB outlet on the computer.
2. I have Dropbox installed on both my computer and on the tablet. When I put photos (or anything else) into Dropbox on the computer, as if by magic these items also show up in Dropbox on the tablet (make sure of course the tablet is on, and allow sufficient time for files to transfer.
3. I bought a microSD card. It comes with an adapter. To copy files from the computer to the Micro SD, the itty-bitty-tiny card is in the adapter. When finished copying, take the Micro card out of the adapter and put it in the tablet card slot.
BTW, by far the fastest method is to use the charge-cable. Your computer should see the tablet as and external drive.

My wife has an iPad that has an Apple connector that receives an SD card. I suspect a Verizon tablet must have one similar.

Why not upload your photos to the cloud? Then use the tablet to pull them down. There are several companies that will allow uploads, like Amazon Prime, Microsoft, and more.

Perhaps a card reader would serve you better.
