I have a 7D on order, I read on a review from DPreview that the 7D isn't setup as a direct transfer USB protocol like most cameras are. It says that it needs to install a file onto the computer to transfer files directly through the USB cable??? Has anyone used a direct USB to CCK on the iPad? Does it work?
Also does anyone have a link to a list of know compatible CF card readers that the iPad will accept. I have two multi-card readers and both require too much power.
My 7D is on order, my current T1i transfers just fine through USB and of course since it uses SD cards I can also use that part of the CCK, it seems weird that the 7D wouldn't be able to do this but who know
Thanks for any help
Edit: Here is the quote from the review... "With the 7D connected via USB cable, the only transfer method available is WIA - Canon doesn't provide a simple 'mass storage device' feature in the camera (enabling the camera to act as a normal card reader). Because of this a driver is installed when you connect the camera to your computer the first time to ensure the transfer of all your images (as drag-and-drop WIA doesn't support RAW)."
