Try doing this just before you plug in your camera:
# tail -f /var/log/messages

Ctrl-C to break when done.  There should be some information printed
about what USB driver is used when the camera is plugged in.  Most of
the newer cameras just use the USB mass storage interface.  In that case
you'll see it being registered as /dev/sda or something similar.  Then
you can just mount that.
