iPad 2 - IOS6 - Importing photos from camera not working

I have been importing photos from my camera since I have the ipad 2 with no issue whatsoever. However, this has ceased to function in iOS 6. Now the ipad will import only a few pictures (marked by a green check mark), and subsequently put red exclamation marks for the next 20 pictures or so, until I can see that the camera is not even registering any activity.


Upon cancellation and restart, it will reimport the same pictures, even if I select the skip duplicates option, and display the same aforementionned behaviour (red exclamation marks and eventual stop).


Has anyone found a way to correct this? I've tried:


- Hard reboot

- Changed camera's battery (in case it was a battery issue)

- Several imports (only to see last import folder multiply like flies)

- Scoured the internet ....


Thanks

iPad 2, iOS 6

I have Test it with a Panasonic tz-5 no problems.

I also make some test shots with the d90 in lower resolution (size M fine) and it

Works fine.so I have take a look at both cameras tech-sheet and see both have the

Exactly Same CMOS sensor 12.3 megapixel By 4288 × 2848.

Maybe this is the problem. I will test it with a little higher test shot in portrait.

@rvsst we will see if his camera has the same resolution

Confirm the same problem here.


I have Nikon D300. Problems with portrait pictures only. I just kept trying like the following:

- when it hit a portrait photo, it fails, I stop the import

- try from where it failed, keep trying until it works

- the photo app may crash, try again

- until I got everything imported


Flaky!!


I also have a Lumix GF3. I import directly using the SD card. No issue.

I'm using a Nikon D300s. I have imported RAW files to my iPad 2 without any problems using various brands and speeds of SD cards through the USB camera connection kit in iOS5 for a year and a half. Now with the iOS6, I cannot import any pictures - portrait or landscape- at all. At a standstill now, since I use the iPad to view out in the field, I sure hope to get some help soon. Apple, are you listening?!
