Import from a camera memory card

“

- [Instructor] A common way to bring pictures into your photos library is via a memory card. You have a camera and it has a memory card in it, SD memory card or a micro SD card, and you have it full of pictures, and you want to get them into your photos library. So you can do that, and all you have to do is first find a card reader if your MAC doesn't have one builtin. I know some of the newer laptops don't have the card readers builtin. I still have one that does, which is very nice. But you can get an external card read that goes into one of your ports. Any number of ways to do it, and of course, you can always do it the old fashioned way where you get the USB cord that comes with your camera and plug it into your computer and go that route too. Regardless, once you do that and Photos will see that card once it's been mounted. And it will show up over here under devices. There we have one, a Canon card in there right…
