Connecting directly to camera

i have a panasonic dmc-fs3 digital camera and would like to use the ipod touch to download pictures when i am on a trip. since i am away from home i would most likely not have a computer to connect with and go thru the process of using itunes to download and upload etc. is there a way to connect the camera directly to the touch....or is there an accessory that will accomodate a direct connection? thanks much.

Thanks Dud...that's what I was afraid of. Teach me to buy something without really knowing all its capabilities. I'll still use it for all the other goodies. If I may, another question...can the touch be re-charged any other way than plugging into the computer?
Thanks again, and yes, I really am an old tech dummy.

To sync photos from a Mac or Windows PC to your device using photo applications
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
In iTunes, select your device's icon in the Devices list on the left.
Click the Photos tab.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Note: Some versions of Photoshop Album and Photoshop Elements don't support collections. You can still use them to sync all your photos.
If you want to sync all your photos, enable the option for "All photos, albums, events, and faces." If you want to sync photos from only some albums, events, or faces, enable the option for "Selected albums, events, and faces" and then select the albums you want. If syncing on a Mac with iPhoto version 6.0.6 or later, you may enable the option to "Include videos" to sync videos directly from iPhoto to your device. (Requires iOS 3.0 or later).
Click Apply.
To sync photos from a folder on your hard disk to your device
Drag the images you want into a folder on your computer. If you want images to appear in separate photo albums on your device, create folders inside the main folder and drag images into the new folders.
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left.
Choose "Sync photos from."
Select Choose Folder from the pop-up menu and choose your main image folder.
Click Apply.

My Sony Cybershot has always connected directly to iPhoto, but I must have changed a setting somewhere, and now it opens in Finder. Very frustrating to have to locate and then drag pics to iPhoto. Would I reset in the camera menu or in System Preferences?

My Sony Cybershot has always connected directly to iPhoto, but I must have changed a setting somewhere and now it opens in Finder. Very frustrating and I can't find where to change the settings - camera menu or Mac Preferences. Any advice?? Thanks

No, not in iPhoto, but instead in Finder (only). I've tried going into the camera menu and making sure it's set on Mass Storage, but no difference. Then I tried Auto - but also no difference.

How do i connect a video camera to my macbook pro

Here is an image of the side of a MacBook Pro:
The FireWire is directly to the left of the Thunderbolt/ MiniDisplay port. There are two USB ports, they are directly to the left of the SD card slot.

Connecting directly macbook pro to ethernet big disk...

I was wondering if i could connect directly my macbook pro to the ethernet plug of ethernet big disk with ethernet cable. I have used the lacie connected to netgear router but the big disk showed that it was connected at 100mbits/s. When I tried to take same cable and plug it in macbook pro and fiddle around wth advanced ethernet option, the settings always came back to previous ones. Why? Thank you for looking at this tread and hope i will enjoy super fast transfer rates because it is painfully slow at 100mbits/s. Funny how firewire 800 makes such a difference. Thanks.

IPhone connect to Digital camera or Eye-fi

Hi. Can I connect the iPhone to digital camera? If it is not possible, can I connect an eye-fi card to the phone? Thanks

I do not know of a way that iPhone and digital cameras can be connected (directly) at this time. However, Eye-fi has an application for the iPhone that will take iPhone photos and upload them over the internet to your computer. It works very well.
Eye-fi transfers photos wirelessly from the camera/SD card to your wireless router, then over the internet to an Eye-fi server and then down to you computer. This process works well, too.
Eye-fi comes with a USB adapter so that you can take the card out of your camera and "import" the photos to your computer
Eye-fi will transfer photos to iPhoto but you must select this feature thru your Eye-fi "account".
I wish Eye-fi connected directly to my computer over my local wifi network, but I could not determine how to do this.

Can the Iphone be connected directly to a camera and download the photos taken?

I do not believe so.

Using Connect:Direct with SAP

Folks,
Client is using Connect:Direct to transfer the files from one location to another location.There are two table maintained namely T9AOA and T9AOB with Interface id and Unix scripting w.r.t Processing types respectively.
1.I don't think these are SAP standard tables then why they are not named starting with Z or Y
2.How to use Connect:Direct with SAP.
Searched in SDN and google but didn't get any clear information on the above.From google I came to know this is a Product of Sterling Commerce(AT&T).
Hope someone here who used Connect:Direct with SAP can share the info.
Thanks,
Kiran.

Paky,
The existing Design,had some tables which were maintained with required Unix Scripts.In the program we are just fetching that script from the table and building a Unix Command to move the files.There is also a URL using which we can check the status of the files.As I was just using the already existing design,don't have much info on how C:D connectivity can be designed from scratch.
By Googling,I was able to get some info.May be it will give you some lead.

Do thumbnails show in Bridge CS5 if connected directly from a DSLR (via USB cable)?

I have a D90 and none of my thumbnails for my files show in Bridge CS5 when connected directly from the camera. This includes ALL types of files (JPEG, NEF, etc). It shows the thumbnails when I use a card reader though. Is this common with DSLRs?

If you have—misguidedly and unfortunately—done that already, first back up the image files on your computer, then immediately format the card in the camera, which will erase everything in the card and format it to a fresh, pristine state.
What ever possessed you to do a thing like that?
Had you done that to the card containing the raw files you can't open?
Do not be fooled by what the camera shows you anyway. The preview you see in the back of the camera when chimping* is not a preview of your raw file at all, but of the embedded JPEG that the camera creates right after you shoot and records inside your raw file. The histogram it shows you in the camera is not based on the raw data at all either, but on said embedded JPEG.
The same is true when you review or playback the images later on the LCD display in the back of the camera.
*Chimping is a colloquial term used in digital photography to describe the habit of checking every photo on the camera display (LCD) immediately after capture.
The phrase is most likely derived from comparison between the sounds and actions some make while reviewing images and those of an excited primate (Oooh! Oooh! Aaah!), or when a photographer is completely absorbed in the act of analyzing, admiring or proudly displaying a shot to others.

Oy!

Direct from camera or Card Reader?

Aloha all, a few questions because I'm stumped, and have searched the Canon site with no luck, so I thought I'd ask people who have real world knowledge. Here's the problem. Suddenly every program that I attempt to up-load my shots with, can not see the pictures on the camera (20d). They do recognize the camera, and it mounts fine, but it shows up with 0 photos for import. Each one says no photos to up-load, however when I view them on the camera they are there, and when I use a card reader they show up, and up-load/import fine. Any idea why they suddenly can't be seen when the camera is connected directly? More importantly for me, is there a fix you know of that doesn't involve sending the camera in for repairs?
The Applications I use, and won't show/import the shots directly from the 20d are 1. Aperture, 2. Photoshop CS, 3. iPhoto, 4. Digital Photo Professional
Part two, please bare with me.
Does/has anyone used the Sandisk Extreme USB 2.0 Reader? I'm looking for a new card reader and like this one. I don't really need/want a reader that reads 12 - 15 different cards, just a CF and maybe a memory stick. Is the USB 2 ok speed wise? (I shoot mainly RAW). Or would you recommend going FW?
Mahalo in advance for any suggestions, tips, or advice. JB

Importing directly from the camera is often problematic. It mounts using a TWAIN driver, and this always seems flaky.
Importing via a card reader mounts the device like a drive, and I have never had problems with this approach. It's almost always faster as well. The only downside is you can't do "tethered" shooting (basically live off the camera).
Anyway, is the Sandisk Extreme 2.0 reader the $90 jobbie? I believe I recall reading a review on Luminous Landscape that noted its speed is only realized if you use their Extreme 4 series of cards -- otherwise it's not all that much faster than a normal reader. I would expect most USB 2.0 or Firewire 400 readers would be fine -- personally I use a Lexus Firewire 400 reader and it has been excellent. The "right" Sandisk combo is faster, but it depends on whether you need that speed for import. It's nice, but often not a "have to have."

How to download photos direct from camera

Can I upload photos directly from camera to iPad.

You can transfer pictures from camera to iPad using the Camera Connection Kit (CCK)

WWHEN I CONNECT MY VIDEO CAMERA TO THE MAC, IMOVIE DOES NOT RECONIZE IT SO IT GOES STRAIGHT TO DVD PLAYER. I AM TRYING TO DOWNLOAD VIDEO IN IMOVIE. SOME OF THE DISC WILL GO TO IMOVIE OTHERS STRAIGHT TO DVD PLAYER

When I connect my video camera to the mini mac in order to download into imovie it goes directly to dvd player and I can't download into imovie. It does not reconize a camera being connected. This does not happen all the time. Is something wrong with the disc or the camera???

It sounds like it is mistaking the camera for a DVD disk. So my best follow-up question is to ask:
1. Who is the manufaturer of your camera
2. What is the model number of this camera.
What happens when you quit DVD player. Does iMovie still fail?

Connecting Wi-Fi Camera to Mac via Airport?

I just purchased a Nikon Coolpix P1, which is Wi-Fi certified. The manuals provided with the camera leave something to be desired, and I am having trouble establishing the Wi-Fi connection between the camera and my iMac. Should I in fact try to make that connection via my Airport Express system? If so, where can I find the settings I need to input into the camera? The camera and computer seemingly should be able to connect directly, but here too I'm not sure where to find the computer settings that the camera needs to have.
iMac Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Welcome to the discussions!
I assume you've read these instructions.
Is your iMac connecting wirelessly to the Express for Internet already? If so then yes you should have the camera join that network. The settings you need for the camera can be found in Airport Admin Utility. SSID is the same as Airport Network Name. The online instructions at Nikon's technical support site look pretty good if the link above doesn't work.

Hello, someone can please tell me, if there is an adapter or something that allow me to connect directly my iPad 2 with a printer or a flashdrive ? Thanks

You can use the camera connection kit to connect, but there's no protocol for any sort of data or file transfer beyond properly named photos and videos. You can plug them in but they won't do anything.
The only printing the iPad natively supports is air print to specific printers, or printing to wifi printers with third party apps. You cannot use flash drives for data transfer (beyond the mentioned photos and videos)
