Getting images from Fuji 5000s to Mac?

Archived from groups: comp.sys.mac.apps,comp.sys.mac.system,alt.comp.periphs.dcameras (More info?)

The apps that come with the camera are all Windows apps. Is there any chance
that I can download images from this USB camera with a Mac-compatible app?

Googling Mac and Fjui and 5000s turned up little useful info.

Thanks,

As long as the camera talks to the Mac as a USB Mass Storage device, it
should just work. No drivers necessary.

Sure. That's what iPhoto is for.

My Fuji camera works fine as a USB storage device without adding any
software to the Mac. Just plug the camera into the Mac with USB (OS X
10.3.6 here, but I've done the same with earlier versions).

I believe the default is that iPhoto will open and offer to manage the
process for you. I turned this off... I want to manage the copying
process in the Finder.

Just open a finder window after plugging in and turning on the camera.
You'll see the camera as a USB Storage device. Click on it, drill down
a couple of folders, and you can then drag and drop image files to copy
them to your hard disk. Then click the eject-triangle to dismount the
camera.

As a precaution, I do not use the Mac to delete images in the camera; I
use the controls on the camera to delete the image files after copying
to my mac.
