I am currently in Agra, India, moving on tomorrow to Jaipur, then Varanasi. I’m traveling with my D500 & iPad as usual. I usually download onto the iPad in the evening. Worked as usual on the first day, but now it won’t work at all. All of a sudden when I connect it the iPad claims “no photos to import”. Never saw this before - any thoughts? Any help appreciated.
Thanks

I think Jerryc41 has the right answer. I don't know how much memory there is on an iPad, but when taking large quantities of pictures, there is a limit to how many it will hold. And, as also mentioned, it can get slowed down to the point where it appears that it is not working at all! I travel with a laptop AND an external drive that holds 2TB. It is slim, small enough to easily pack, and not so small as to be easily lost!
Having plenty of SD cards is a good idea on a trip just in case there is a long period of time during which you don't have the opportunity to transfer the images. But make sure you have a case to carry them in so they won't get lost. You may also want to keep all the SD cards as well as a backup, since no drives are immune to failure!
