This consists of a 32GB NON 3G iPad with the Apple photo connection kit (two pieces that let you download photos on SD cards directly, and other cards or camera through a USB cable). For clarity, you will need a USB card reader for CF cards, you can download only SD cards directly. We also include a protective cover that also doubles as a stand for viewing images and slideshows.
You will receive it in “factory default” settings but are free to download any apps, videos, mp3s, etc… while you are using it. We strongly suggest downloading them via your computer (iTunes is a free download from apple.com) so you’ll have copies of the apps for future use.
You can download photos and video for storage and show while out in the field, and later upload them to your computer. Why bother with an iPad instead of a simple storage device? Because the display is much larger and amazingly good, better than many laptops and much better than other storage/viewers. Good enough to put on a slideshow or presentation for your travel companions, good enough to zoom in and see just how much detail your prints will eventually show. Plus the iPad does lots of other things. I download my camera manuals to it for example, as well as programs for depth of field calculations, exposure calculations, all kinds of things (and many of the photography apps are free downloads). Not to mention games, movies, etc. to fill in the boring times.
