Finally, a Compact Flash Reader for iPad
MIC Gadget's CF card reader does away with pesky cables
If you own an iPad and a DSLR, it’s likely that you have already sprung for Apple’s camera connection kit. And if your camera uses compact flash cards, then it is equally likely you own a card reader.
But if you don’t have any way to get pictures into you iPad, or you’re sick of stringing cables between otherwise convenient and portable accessories, then you might pick up the iPad CF Card Reader from MIC Gadget.
It’s a 2-in-1 reader which plugs straight into your iPad’s dock port and has CF and USB slots on the other side. Just plug it in and the images on the card will show up in the iPad’s Photos app, ready to be imported. The USB slot will read video and image files from a thumb drive as long as they are in a folder with a camera-y sounding directory name, such as “DCIM”.
The CF card reader will cost you $30, the same as Apple’s SD and USB camera connection kit. For space-conscious pro SLR users, it’s probably an easy decision.
