Most digital camera's come with a USB cable that plugs into the Mac and the camera. Once the camera is connected it is usually (with most brands of camera) recognised by the Mac and you use either the iPhoto or Image Capture applications (or any other suitable application you may have installed) to download the images from the camera to the Mac.

To use the built in iSight camera you need to run an application that can make use of the camera. These include (in the Applications folder) PhotoBooth, iChat and iMovie.

The Mac's built in iSight camera will automatically come on when you run some software that uses the camera. Standard software found in the Applications folder that can use the camera includes PhotoBooth, iMovie and iChat. You can also download applications such as Amsn to use the camera.

The built in camera with a Mac is controlled by the software that is using it. Launching PhotoBooth, FaceTime, iChat, iMovie etc. (all found in the Applications folder) will turn on the camera. There are numerous other applications that use the camera try Motion FX free from the Mac's App Store.

The Apple Mac Pro does not have a camera. A camera built into the screen connected to the Mac Pro or a MacBook Pro is operated by software whenever it is required. Software that comes with a Mac (found in the Applications folder) that uses the camera includes PhotoBooth, iMovie, iChat. Other software that makes use of the camera, such as MSN Messenger, Skype, FaceTime etc., can be downloaded.
