Photo transfer

[Lee H]

Has anyone used this?

Is it any good or have you found a third party alternative for less than Apple prices? Also, does it work with iPhone?

Not used it but the link says that it's only compatible with ipads. Will iCloud, when it's released, assist you with transferring photos to your iDevices?

It's more for when I'm on holiday really. It would be handy to back up direct from the camera. When I get home I strip them all off anyway and put them on Picassa.

The pad/phone question is based around the belief that they have the same Apple port on the bottom.

Hi Lee,

I have an iphone 3GS - the camera accessory does not work with the 3GS.

My daughter has an iphone 4 which I can try later when she returns from work and I'll post back here.

It works with an ipad no problem but I can't seem to make folders for the pictures I want to import. It imports to the ipad creating 2 folders - 'Last Import' and 'All Imported'. The ability to make a folder to import to, rather than the same folder for all pics would be very useful.

Cheers,

Raymond.

P.S. Did you get my message about the pricing of Vodafone tariffs?

Thanks for that. It's no big deal if it doesn't work on the phone.

Yep, got your message - I'll send you a seperate reply

I got this - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004RBANOG/ref=oss_product - for my ipad the other day, and it seems to work fine. So far only tried transferring photos and videos to it from an SDHC card, but it did it no problem

Thanks Rob, I'll take a look at that. Looks like it would support a USB hub for other card type readers too.

Hi Lee,

Just tried the official Apple camera accessory on the iPhone 4 but it's not recognised.
