I was about to say the same. The most important upgrade is from HDD to 
SSD (I personally prefer Samsung ones), then cpu & RAM. As for gpu, the 
one integrated to the cpu will do just fine for Digikam (of course you 
might have other reasons to buy better gpu too). These upgrades will 
improve the whole desktop user experience. On the other hand, if you 
already have a SSD and decent cpu with memory more than 4 gb, you might 
be disappointed with the results compared to the money you have spent.

Regarding the camera transfer speeds, if it supports the USB3, then make 
sure your motherboard supports it as well and you have USB3 slots on 
your case.
