I can't tell you just how long it took for me to transfer all of the pictures I took from our last Black Belt exam to the point where I could post them to the Vision Martial Arts Center facebook page! I had to put the CF card in a reader on my computer, view the files to choose which ones I wanted on the computer to edit, transfer them to the computer, open them in GIMP to resize and/or crop, put them on an SD card, transfer them to the iPad and then bulk upload them to Facebook.
What a pain, right? Yes, I have reasons for why I did those last steps instead of just doing it on the computer, but they were worth it.
I just tested out the new iPad 2 Connection CF Card Reader Kit I bought this week.
AMAZING!
Pulled the CF card from my camera, slapped the connector on the iPad, loaded them right up and there they were. Incredible! I would highly recommend this for anyone with an iPad as a way to quickly upload videos or get a larger/higher-def view into what pictures they are getting WHILE still out taking the photos. You don't have to lug a laptop around to have the convenience.
Love it. Love it. Love it! Now I just have to go share it with the guys at Camera Stop since they wanted to know whether they should stock it. :)
