Re: default camera importer

Rapid Photo Downloader is great, but it only imports, its not an organizer. I think I'll use it together with gthumb as an organizer/viewer.
Rapid Photo Downloader is better in that it imports videos to the videos folder , gthumb imports everything to the same folder.

Thanks
