Ipad Storage

Can I use my Ipad as storage for video clips i recorded in my HD camcorder via SD card and copy it later to a external hard drive. I purchased a Camera Connection Kit. Would appreciate instructions on how to go about it. thanks Ram

You can use the kit to copy videos and photos to the Photos app (though you may not be able to play the videos on the iPad if they are in a format that isn't supported), but you can't use the kit to copy content off the iPad - you can then copy them from the iPad to your computer and from there to the external drive
