I got a BENQ DC1300 mini digital camera for christmas, its very sweet
and works fine, but doesnt have any mac drivers.  I do have a pc so i
can use it but would much rather use my primary machine, my mac.

It does work in Virtual PC, but only when i reboot in OS9, the transfer
fails in OSX.

i have been trying to find a solution.  Im guessing its an easy thing
to do, to transfer JPGs off the memory into the Mac.

The details i have are that it uses a BSC (Backside cache) Bulk driver
on the PC.

I have the dev kits for both USB drivers and Image Capture support
(macs quick transfer program) but i am in way over my head and dont
know where to start.

Any ideas or shall i just assume that there is no way on a mac i can
use it.


Thanks


Sam
