I don’t do any editing, although I suppose that it’s possible - I just don’t even try. I use it simply to quickly review images on a larger screen, and to transfer them from the camera’s card to backup devices.
Do you use an ipad for photo viewing in the field?

If you would like to post, you'll need to register. Note that if you have a BCG store account, you'll need a new, separate account here (we keep the two sites separate for security purposes).
I followed your advise/example and it works great. Best of all it is super easy to setup. Thanks for your post
I use a Card reader and plug it directly into the iPad. I then import directly into the Apple photo app. From there you can cull, edit and amend metadata. Very easy and relatively fast. You can then export to an ssd from there. The ssd plugs directly into the iPad.

My pleasure! With 20+ fps captures on the Z8/Z9, there is no quicker way skip from series to series to review than through the camera itself.
Lots of great stuff in here, thanks everyone.

I would love to use my IPAD pro to review and rate the images when I am on the move but the biggest bottleneck is the software...I would prefer a software like a fast raw viewer or Nikon's own NX studio that doesn't need the pics to be imported. I prefer having my images on an SSD instead and just use a standalone culling software to view and rate my images.
I have used NX studio as well and like it. Are you saying that NX Studio is not compatible with ipad?

I absolutely love NX studio for image culling as it brings out the best colors and also shows the focus point position, AF mode used and a lot of other settings that are handy. Nope, NX Studio is not available for IPAD OS..they only have Windows and Mac versions.
I would consider a Surface Pro but they cost as much as a regular laptop.
