Not sure if I understand what you really want to do, but here goes. It would be simpler if you took the SD cards out of the camera itself (shutting off the camera first), then used a card reader. The same would go for a phone, or any device that uses an SD card or similar. My own laptop has a card reader that is built-in, as I believe most of the newer machines do. Otherwise, card readers are cheap. I got one for about $20 US, maybe a year or two ago, and I have a couple older ones that still work. (Adapters come with most SD cards that I buy, but they are not hard to find. I see them when I am out walking, as people have dropped them.) For mouting or unmounting, see man pages. If you take out the SD cards, intending to use a card reader, then you may need to use mkdir to create special directories in which to mount them, e.g., sudo mkdir /mnt/SD1 /mnt/SD2 However, if the camera itself mounts, then it also ought to unmount using these same commands, in this case umount; e.g., sudo umount /dev/sdd1 or whatever is the mount point. To find the correct mount points, try this: df --local --human-readable -T I hope this helps.
