Mount Digital Camera as Hard Drive

I've recently upgraded to Leopard and I want to have the camera mount as a hard drive so that I can add some images back to the camera to take and show to my friends. Is there an option to do this, i think I could do it previously in 10.4... I have a Nikon Coolpix s51 and went through all the menus and don't see any options there for disk use. I also tried dragging images to the mounted camera in iPhoto (as that is the only place I can 'see' the mounted camera), but that wouldn't work either.

Thanks!

MacBook Pro 2.2 Ghz, Mac OS X (10.5.2)

Put the camera card into a USB card reader and it will mount on the desktop.

I am also trying to do this with my Canon Cameras. I used to be able to use my camera and a USB cable as a card reader, but now I never see the disk mounted. I even looked under /Volumes/ , but it is not listed there.

I am wanting to copy specific files to and from the camera/Card, but now can not see it. iPhoto detects the camera, but I can not browse the disk any longer.

Does anybody know how to enable this on 10.5 Leopard?
