I have approximatively the same problem.

The DVD section in "System > Preferences > Removable Drives and Media"
has disappeared in the latest Ubuntu version (8.04) and unchecking the
tickbox or changing the command for cameras or film cameras has no
effect.

It's possible to change the automatic actions when a dvd is inserted or a 
camera is plugged in Nautilus "Edit > Preferences > Media" but the only options 
are "Ask what should be done", "Do nothing", "Open the directory" or use the 
default application and there is only one default application possible. I 
managed to add VLC as an alternative to Totem thanks to this documentation : 
http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#How_to_make_VLC_open_when_you_insert_a_DVD
I'd like to be able to change the photo importer too. I don't know if it's 
possible to adapt this tutorial for that.


Anyway I think the default applications should be easier to change and the 
camera section in  "System > Preferences > Removable Drives and Media" seems to 
be useless (except for webcams maybe, I never tried).

P.S.: My system is in French so I tried to re-translate in English.
Sorry for the mistakes.
