I checked the Apple website and it appears an "import" button is supposed to
open up but it does not with my camera. My camera, Sony DSC-P93, does not
appear in the list of supported cameras on the Apple site yet it worked and
that same model name shows up in the iPhoto 4 import, why does 5 now not
support it?

I can't see a good reason for this. Seems very sloppy on Apple's part.
