Image Capture is slow, and doesn't transfer .MOV files from Camera
Image Capture in 10.6 is considerably slower than Leopard. I have a Kodak Z812 IS and Image Capture under Snow Leopard takes a much longer time to read the contents of the camera compared to the version in Leopard. Also, it won't transfer movie files captured on the camera. When you transfer photos, the progress "pie chart" shows the progression of the photos transferring and when done, a check mark appears on each photo (a nice new feature). However, when you try and transfer a movie file from the camera (standard QuickTime .mov file), nothing happens. Says importing, but no progress. Sits there and does nothing.
I rebooted to Leopard (which really does have a much slower boot time than Snow Leopard). Image Capture under Leopard was much faster reading the camera contents and transfers both photos and video with no problems.
Anyone else able to duplicate the movie transfer failure?
(Also, after installing Snow Leopard, I had to repair permissions because Image Capture would not transfer any photos off the camera to a folder on the Desktop. Which I found odd because the permissions hadn't changed since Leopard. But it fixed that problem and photos transfer fine.)
