    Im considering just having an ipad when traveling. How do I transfer images from a memory card to an external hard drive using only an ipad?

    I tried a belkin multiport usb-c device but the ipad doesn't seem to recognize it even though belkin said it should.

    I use my ipad for travel and have enjoyed the convenience of it. I don't miss a laptop now that there is a reasonable version of LR and PS for the ipad, so I can tinker as much as I like or have time for. However, I don't transfer the images from the card to an external hard drive, I just download the travel photos to my ipad and leave them on the cards so that I have two copies. I have read that what you are trying to do is possible with the multiport devices but I have not felt inclined to bother with it. Two copies are enough redundancy for me till I get home and get it all on my desktop system.
