[Richard Walton] "does SPP provide a "safer" or more efficient way to copy DSLR video files than using "Image Capture" or FCPX directly?"
Yes.
by offering the user automated archiving, with MD5 or better checksum assurance- you know that your content has been copied and that copy is verified as being accurate.
FCP or OSX do not allow you to confirm that the copy is indeed accurate.
