I take it that it's some sort of file (iMovie) import, then?  I have
done zippo with video (other than watch), so forgive the neophyte
questions.

And I drag and drop my pics from the storage media in my digital
camera rather than using the USB cable.

25min is not bad for $50 bucks.  Is it possible to replace the
batteries in it?
