I have a ~10 years old iPad that's outdated. I'm considering replacing it with the newest iPad Pro 12.9" model. I would like to start post processing my images (Olympus E-M1 Mk2, Canon R, both RAW) with Lightroom on the new pad. I'm currently doing the PP on a PC using LR Classic.
My questions for those UHH members with the experience -
1) Which LR version should be used on the iPad?
2) Do I need to store my images on both PC's hard drives and on the iPad?
3) Is it possible to access the PC images from the iPad?
4) How can I download images from SD cards to the iPad, i.e. what accessory do i need for that task?

1) Lightroom (the desktop version is called Classic)
2) You can store them in the iPad
3) yes if you have Lightroom installed on both the computer and iPad. An alternative is to store your pictures in a Cloud Service
4) USB-C Card Reader

I always use iPads in the field. A iPad 10.7 air connected to camera for the screen. Then For a quick edit and upload, I use my older 10.5 iPad pro with 256g. Storage small but I picked up a LaCie 2tb copilot, I do the edit Make a folder then move to the drive. Afterward load onto the PC for PS. But if there’s more needed before I get back, I have an older 12.9 pro with Affinity. It’s 1tb, and I only load RAW there. But I also load to the copilot for PP at home if can wait. I’ve had the Copilot for about a month and really glad I spent the money. I am waiting for the newer 12.9 iPad Pro To upgrade to. The card reader, yes definitely stick with apple, and you can order online Direct from Apple. Personally unless my dog gets loose I will not walk into a Best Buy. Even if they are giving stuff.

My workflow is done on the PC at home. I take a lot of images on trips (2-3 a year) but do no editing while traveling. My insurance is multiple SD cards which I switch frequently; so far I have had no problems, no losses. I'll go for the newest 12.9 Pro version, the 2020 one, Wi-Fi only since any image work will be done at home. The 2020 version has some advantages over the 2018 one, mainly 2 back cameras, improved AR according to B&H. I usually go for the latest and greatest then keep the device for a long time.
Thanks again everybody, this has been an interesting and informative discussion.

Funny of all the iPads I own, and have owned I cannot remember ever taking a picture with one.
