Title: iPad camera connection kit
Post by: Lance on Apr 14, 2012, 00:00:41
Just wondering whether anybody has used it? I'm thinking of getting it but tempted to try one of the hong king imports on eBay first.

I bought the Apple camera connection kit with my IPad. It is only 2 small connectors so it is difficult to see what could go wrong with a 3rd party kit.

Certainly the third party kit is looking the better option at the moment.

Thanks Glenn, think I'll order that later.

Thanks for the link Steve, interesting that they see the apple TV as an iPad accessory.

I guess that's for airplay and airplay mirroring.

I'm looking at getting one too. This with a few other things means I've already spent the additional money from my promotion this month!
