Are the photos in a DCMI folder in the root directory of the card and do the file names have exactly eight characters?
When you connect are you getting any message on the iPad?
It may not work with the card reader. There is a Lightning to SD card reader adopter

My guess is that it does not work through the card reader. Sometimes something between the card and camera Connection kit adopter make the assembly not work

I did a little more research. Camera connector will ONLy work with camera and nothing else.
I connected it directly to a camera and it works. Thanks for your help
