Camera to Tablet Cable

[RandomlySet]

Is it possible to get a cable that connects my camera to my Galaxy Tab 2?

I'd like to be able to use the Tab 2 as gallery viewer if possible, and also be able to move images from the camera straight to the Tablet.

BTW, I have an EOS 1100D.

Try a cheap USB OTG cable from eBay. Afaik the Tab 2 supports USB On The Go (see http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-2/210320-using-otg-adapter-galaxy-tab-2-7-a.html) so camera should appear as a drive when connected. Fun remote live view and remote control, interferometer etc can be done using http://dslrcontroller.com

You can get a USB abaptor for the Tab 2 which would accept the USB cable that comes with your camera. Never tried connecting my camera to my Tab 2 though so might give it a try.

I got a usb to go cable off amazon for £1.97 ( inc postage ! )
I use it to drive the camera from my Sony Xperia T using dslrdashboard, which is a brilliant app ( and free ), I also use a 10m active USB extender, so i can hide away from camera so I don't scare the critters ( or keep out of the cold ).
It did take 4 weeks to float over from china though !
