+
+ <p>To import photos from a digital camera:</p>
+
+ <steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>Connect the camera to your computer and switch it on.
+ Shotwell will detect it and list it in the sidebar.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Select the camera in the sidebar. Previews of each photo on the camera will be displayed.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>If you like, you can choose a set of specific photos to import. To do this, hold down the <key>Ctrl</key> key and click to select individual photos. You can hold down <key>Shift</key> and click to select a range of photos too.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Click either <gui>Import Selected</gui> or <gui>Import All</gui>. The photos will be copied from the camera and saved on your computer.</p>
+ </item>
+ </steps>
+
+ <p>Once the import is complete, you can open the <gui>Last Import</gui> view (in the sidebar) to see all photos that were imported. The Events list (also in the sidebar) will also show the new photos, organized by date.</p>
