Subject: Camera Driver help
Just got a new digital camera (Fuji FinePix A220) and it is really
messing with my work flow and I'm hoping for some help. Running
10.4.11 on a DA.
Both of my older cameras (the Nikon I just replaced and a floppy disk/
memory stick based Sony Mavica) would show up on my desktop as soon
as I plugged them into a usb port. I would then browse the memory
card just like a HD and drag off the photos I needed.
The Fuji does not. You need to import using iPhoto, Image Capture or
Graphic Converter, then save. Since I have so many different folders
that I need to save photos to, it is easiest for me to browse the
memory card directly in the Finder, drag the photos to where they
need to go, then work on them from there.
When I connect the camera I see the following:
USB PTP:
Version: 1.00
Bus Power (mA): 100
Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec
Product ID: 0x01fe
Serial Number: 592D33333031090824C5559UB21118
Vendor ID: 0x04cb
PTP stands for Picture Transfer Protocol. Wikipedia says it is
supported by Apple, but I am guessing at the iPhoto level, not OS.
Anyone have any ideas? Macam doesn't help (did not think it would,
but thought I would try)

Hi Len,
Use a USB card reader - it saves hammering your camera's battery as well.
