I bought it in haste, and then looked on the iphoto compatibility sheet where it is not listed.

Anyone using this camera with iPhoto?

I'd say plug it in and find out.

in case it isn't, just get an external card reader for the xD media it uses. It will save battery life, and it will transfer the pictures faster (with usb 2). Just google for an xD media reader.

According to this camera's support page, it has drivers for MacOS 8.6 - 10.3.1

It's a good bet that it will work, check the support FAQs and the product manuals if in doubt.

I'm about 99% sure it works.

My GF's 2650 (which was replaced by the a205) works great.

Fuji's website says it's mac compatible, so I'd guess iPhoto not being mentioned is an oversight.

At $99 a pop, there has to be a mess of these floating around, I figure someone would have mentioned a problem by now.
