Scanner should be no problem. In my setup (Slackware 12.1 and KDE 3.5.9) 
both command-line (scanimage, xscanimage) and gui tools  (Kooka) work 
fine and recognise the scanner (HP Photosmart C4200 multi-function 
device). I had to mess a bit with a udev rules file to make the scanner 
usable by regular non-root users.

Cameras are sometimes seen as usb-drives in which case you can simply 
transfer files from the "drive" to your filesystem. Otherwise digicam 
(http://extragear.kde.org/apps/digikam/) which I have personally not 
used might be what you need.
