Photos off camera

What do other people use to transfer the photos off their camera into a
file in their computer?

I used Picasa and liked it very much because it was dead easy.  The photos
downloaded off the camera using the USB cable that came with it, then I
could do crops and brightening etc to make them look OK enough for my
requirements, could even email them from Picasa.

Now Google don't have Picasa for Linux.

I looked through the photo and camera choices listed in synaptic but they
all seem to be (according to their descriptions) about doing fancy things
to/with photos, not about taking them from camera to computer.  F-Spot has
"Import" but it brings the choice to import into F-Spot from what's already
in various files on the computer, not what's in the camera.
