into a read/write USB stick ... suitable for copying photos taken on that
iOS device (or for copying feature-length movies over USB to that iOS

Um, isn't that always in effect whatever any digital camera does anyway
? Or did the Lightning connect thing somehow cripple IOS wrt
read/writability of pix from external devices ?


ios devices have always showed up as a standard digital camera when
connected to a computer, no additional software needed.

Apple, crippling things ? Naaa - not possible.


they do not. quite the opposite. they make things easier, one reason
why their products are so popular.

copying photos from an iphone to a computer doesn't need a lightning
cable.
