What Happens to Camera's Photos When I Transfer them to iPad?

Transferring photos from camera to your iPad is easy. You can transfer photos by using the SD card adapter which is available in the camera connection kit or by connecting the camera to iPad via USB cable. You will get the exact same photos transferred to the iPad by using SD card adapter or connecting the camera via USB cable. The only difference is that if you connect camera then you have to switch ON the camera and use its battery. You can transfer full resolution photos to your iPad. If you click photos in .jpg-only format then the iPad uses these jpeg for editing and viewing. If you transfer RAW photos to the iPad, then it will save them in full resolution but the iPad will only display and edit the jpg preview. So, if you edit a RAW photo on your iPad, then actually you are editing a low resolution jpg preview generated by the camera. You can shoot RAW+JPG photo so the iPad gets a better quality jpg, but it takes up more space on your iPad.
