Is there an iPad connection kit to import RAW images from a Canon DSLR?

Question

Is there a way to connect a Canon 5d MK2 to an iPad for copying the contents of the CF card especially in Raw format?

Answer

I have done this with my iPad and the camera connection kit using a USB CF reader and the USB connector on the iPad. I found it was much faster using the reader than the camera. I was even able to upload some of the better pictures to my photo hosting account using a 3rd party app. I will say though to not use it as the only tool to decide if the color is image is worth keeping. On mine at least the color rendering is not as good for RAW as Adobe Camera Raw.

I'm looking for the best photographic editing tool for Apple's iPad. There are many programs on the App Store, but I cannot test them without buying them. So what is your experience in the subject?

I think the Photoshop mobile app is going to be one of the better options.

Why are my photos slightly yellower than they should be on iPad 1st gen?

Question

I just transferred some photos from my Macbook to my iPod Touch and my iPad 1st gen. I found that photos on my iPad are a tad warmer than they are on my Macbook and my iPod Touch. Has anyone experienced this before?

Answer

Different displays ship with manufacturing tolerances which will give each unit fractionally differing colour output; in addition to this, manufacturers may choose to ship with factory default colour settings. To complicate matters further, the capacitive covering over the iPad screen may introduce a colour cast of its own.

The only way to get reliable colour reproduction is to use a colourimeter to calibrate the screen, although this obviously won't be possible for the iPad half of your situation.
