Does the Apple USB C to Lightning cable replace the need for a Camera Connection Kit?

I use iOS devices with various midi controllers and audio interfaces. Up until now I’ve always connected these things via the CCK.


With the USB C to Lightning cable, can I plug a USB C device directly into an iPad’s Lightning connection?

iPad Air 2, iOS 9

Hi,


You can use USB-C to charge other devices using your iPad. However, you would not be able to import or otherwise sync photos between devices plugged into the iPad. Only charge.
