With mine, it doesn't automount the cards, but I also have "noauto" in my 
fstab for those card slot entries.  I suppose I could try removing that 
and could let you know how I make out.

Scratch that...I just tried.  My patricular card reader doesn't seem to 
trigger anything when I insert a card, even after I removed the "noauto" 
option from its line in fstab.

The best bet, IMO, is to add a line in your fstab like so:

/dev/sdc1               /mnt/camera             auto    user,noauto,rw  0 0

Change sdc whatever device your reader or its slot comes up as, change 
/mnt/camera to whatever mount point you like.

Then, when you put in a card, just "mount /mnt/camera" and voila, it's 
mounted.  When you're done, just "umount /mnt/camera" and it's unmounted.
