I got one and do like it. It does what it is supposed to and did a good job moving the images from my cybershot to my photo ipod. Sure it was a little slow but it did the job.

The most annoying thing for me was that I couldn’t just hook up the usb directly from my ipod to my camera…but that is Sonys’ fault since they decided to make the port on the camera non-usb so you have to connect the other end of the cord to the camera dock, dock the camera then transfer….which kind of defeats the purpose and requires you to carry you the camera dock to be able to do the transfers.

Anyone know of an adapter that will convert the sony cybershot plug into a usb port? Sony can be annoying when the don’t follow standards and always try to set them.

Hi,

I recently purchased the i-Pod photo 30GB and the Camera Connector.

However when I connect my digital camera (Olympus supported by the camera connector as per http://www.apple.com/ipod/compatibility/cameraconnector.html), I am not able to transfer the photos. I do not get the PHOTO IMPORT Option on the i-Pod screen. I only get option to views photos transferred from my Laptop using i-Tunes.

Can someone please tell me as to what might be the issue and how to resolve the same.

Any help will be appreciated. My email ID is sanjibon.dass@ge.com

Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards,
Sanji

Hey Sanji,

May be a dumb question, but you did update your ipod photo using the updater to version 1.1 right? The ipod photo doesn’t naturally have support for the connector and you have to update your software firsrt.

If you have then I have no idea what else could be wrong…

Once you’ve put the photos onto the ipod, can you then transfer them back onto the computer from the ipod, cos you can’t do this with music.

I have a Sony DSC-P10, which does not make the compatibility list. Indeed, though the Import option appears, it indicates there are no images to import. Just for curiosity, can anyone explain why this particular camera is incompatible, while the DSC-P73, for example, makes the cut?
