Camera w. mp4 video to use Camera Connection to upload directly to iPad?

I am off for some vacation adventures and the last camera I bought was a Nikon Cookpix S550 about 4 or 5 years ago. The video output is only .avi and my iPad 3 with camera connection kit can't recognize the format.
I am not bringing my iMac with me on the trip so I would really like to get a point and shoot camera that can shoot video in a format the iPad can handle with as little trouble and hassle as possible (I figure every camera will offer a photo format the iPad will recognize).
Ideally, the camera would use ssd cards for storage but I am open to any reasonably priced (i.e. under $180US) camera at this point
Would anyone recommend a camera brand or model to do this?

Hi
Any JVC, SONY and PANASONIC mini DV camera with firewire output will work fine. You can search in www.camcorderinfo.com about features and reviews.
ABout Canon you'll find a lot of happy users around here but some others with problems. It seems that Canon implementation of firewire is not good.
Stay away from hard drive and DVD cameras if you plan to edit your footage.
Hope that helps !

    You want the newer Lightning to USB Camera Adaptor.

    The old Camera Connection Kit also works and I use it on my iPad 4, however, to use this your will need the Lightning to 30 pin adaptor.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation. It's covered by Apple's 1-year warranty.

  • Converting Nokia N95 MP4 videos for use with Premiere Pro?

    What would you say the best way to convert Nokia N95 MP4 videos for use with Premiere Pro is?

  • Unable to sync my movies in the i tunes 11 library i try to add the mp4 video by using the add to library option but the movie does not sync while the music is syncing fine...

    i am unable to sync my movies in the i tunes 11 library i try to add the mp4 video by using the add to library option but the movie does not sync while the music is syncing fine...

    I had the same issue. What I did was save the movies on a thrid-party app like Download Manager Lite. Once downloaded, go back to itunes, go to your iDevice, go to apps and transfer the app, then scroll down and click on the app and from there you can send the movies to that app and WILL play. Can only hold up to 8 videos/movies (this is for iPod Touch 3G or better, iPhone 3s or better, iPad requires iOS 4.3 or better)
    YES THIS APP SUPPORTS .mp4
    From other ipod (nano, classic): I don't remember.
    If your just putting them on iTunes, it should show and play on iTunes no problem.

  • Camera connection stopped working on my ipad 2

    I bought a go pro hero2 and a camera connection kit for pad. When I put sd card in slot on connection kit, it won't load but it will load on another ipad 2 that we have. What could be the problem. A USB cable from camera to ipad2 doesn't work either. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    The mic might have dust on it.
    Use a vacuum cleaner on it.

  • FIXED: How Can I Import .MP4 Video? Used to work...

    EDIT: Okay, figured it out!  Had to run Adobe updater, now I can import .mp4s from YouTube!  wooot.
    Hi, I was working on some mashups using videos I downloaded from YouTube (.mp4 format) in premiere and everything was going good, but had to reinstall my operating system for other reasons.  I re-installed Premiere Pro CS4 too but when I opened up the project I was previously working on, it said I could not re-link to the .mp4 files.  It said they were not supported and were different than the ones in the project - they are not.
    I noticed that I could no longer properly import .MP4s downloaded from YouTube, only the audio track is imported.
    I have had success converting the .mp4s to .movs using QuickTime pro, those .movs work, but if possible I'd like to do away with this step.
    Any help is appreciated.
    I remember back in the day using Premiere 5.0 in 2003 I could import any format I wanted to do mashups, ahh those were the good old days
    Thanks in advanced for any help

    >had to reinstall my operating system
    The program I use to make a full system backup image is mentioned here http://www.pacifier.com/~jtsmith/ADOBE.HTM#SmartOwn

  • I am getting very different graphical results from mp4 video files using iOS5.1 and iOS6. The OS6 is 1/3 the size of the iOS5?

    We are converting some Flash online courses over to html5/mp4. Under the iOS5.1 everything looks great. Viewing the same course under iOS6, the video window is about 1/3 the height. We have tested this on multiple IPad devices and get the same results. Suggestions? Thanks.

  • Camera connection kit works not with iPad 2, but still with iPad 1

    Since I have my iPad 2 i can't import my photos by the kit in the iPad 2, but still works on iPad 1.
    I don't know why, because no error messages are displayed or something else.
    In both cases I used the same accessories (SD-Card) and the iPads are the "big" versions incl. the 3G.
    Could anyone can help me?

    Try:
    1) To restart (reboot) Press and Hold the Home and Power buttons until the Apple Logo appears, about 10
      seconds.
    2) If that doesn't work, try a reset. To reset go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset.
    3) If it's still bad, you can try a restore from within itunes. (Sync first)

  • Not able to upload .jpgs on a SD card to Ipad 3 with camera connection kit. What am I doing wrong?

    I downloaded .jpgs only from a video recorder on to a SD card.  Using the camera connection kit, the Ipad 3 is doesn't recognize any files in either Photos or iPhoto.  Currently do not have iTunes available to sync photos.  What do I need to do to get the iPad to recognize the jpegs on my SD card?

    Solved my problem.  Created a folder named:  "DCIM"  on the SD card.  Moved all the .jpg files to this folder.  Reconnected to the ipad with the camera connection kit, upload to ipad started outomatically in Photos app.

  • Camera connection kit (USB) doesn't work with iPhone 3Gs / Canon EOS 30D

    When I plug in my iPhone 3Gs or Canon EOS30D to the camera connection kit via USB the iPad behaves strange: One time nothing happens at all. The other time "photo" starts, showing the "camera" button which disappears immediately after a few seconds. Actually I was only able to import photos when I push the connection kit against the iPad o.o ???
    Does anybody has had a similar problem ?

    Do you have a case on the iPad the is interfering with getting a good connection? What cable are you using: Is the battery in the camera almost fully charged and is it on the right setting? I could no find any previous discussions on your particular camera but other users have reported not being able to download from some cameras.
