I think you can detect a digital camera with the Image Capture
framework.

You can detect if an iPod is mounted by calling -[NSWorkspace
mountedRemovableMedia], and then check for an iPod_Control
directory in each volume.
I've had a similar problem, so I was wondering: Did anyone ever
find out how to get from that info to the actual driver or device
name (i.e. when you plug in a camera, the name that System Profiler
shows for a device in its list)? Checking for that directory may
work for an iPod and yield few false positives, but is there a way
to detect the actual device info the system seems to know? Based on
the BSD pathname maybe?
I tried a couple of things a year or so ago, but never really
managed to make the connection between the info I got from Cocoa
and IOKit. Since I'll soon have to get back to the project I used
that on, I'd be really interested in any clues you may have.
