Most of the digital cameras uses a twain driver or a normal FAT file system.
You can use one of many twain toolkits to do what you want. Most of them are
COM components you can access from any Windows programming language.

Here is one toolkit:

Look up the DirectShow API (part of DirectX SDK), which has everything you
need for working with digital cameras.

Also, get the book "Programming Microsoft DirectShow for Digital Video and
Television" by Mark Pesce (Microsoft Press).
