Connecting a digital camera to debian

So I wanted to connect my digital camera to transfer pictures to my computer. Surprisingly this task was pretty straightforward. First I installed the Konqueror through aptitude because I once used it on Knoppix and Mepis and it was fairly easy to use and graphical. Fluxbox purists might say otherwise because its part of KDE but I like it. Getting to the point; connect the camera, create a directory called /mnt/usb, and enter this command in the terminal.
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb

I was able to browse my camera after navigating to /mnt/usb hope you have the same luck. This is where I got the info from.
