How do you download photos from a camera to a MacBook?

To download photos from a camera to a MacBook, connect the camera to the MacBook using a USB cable or insert the camera's memory card into the card reader. Open the Photos app, which should automatically recognize the connected device and display the import window. Select the photos you wish to download and click the "Import" button. Alternatively, you can use Image Capture from the Applications folder for more control over the import process.
