I'm gong to go ahead and click import there. It's automatically going to start importing all your pictures. If you want to stop, you can come down here to stop import. I don't want to import all these right now. I'm going to select keep photos. If you're wondering where it copies these photos to. If you go to your hard drive and come down to pictures and iPhoto library. If you come down to originals, it's going to store them in a folder here depending on under the year. I'm going to go to 2007. It's going to store them in whatever roll you named them, or it will automatically add a number. If you haven't selected a roll. Mine is under roll 11 now. When you're done, all you have to do is click the eject button next to your camera and unplug your camera. You've got all of your photos from your camera in iPhoto now. "
