Kent,

You may want to try gtkam from /usr/ports/graphics/gtkam

--------
gtkam is an universal, free GTK+ application that will allow
downloading, saving, and manipulation of images from several
different digital camera models, or from the local harddrive.
 
gtkam supports a wide array of digital camera models.
Visit http://www.gphoto.org/cameras.html for an updated list.
 
WWW: http://www.gphoto.org/gphoto2/
--------

And recheck your USB permissions in /dev.
