assuming for the moment that you have an actual CF card in there for the reader to access, and that it has at least one digicam pic on it, what I'd do is get the 'fat95' filesystem from Aminet, install it into your L: directory and reboot the computer.  More than likely that will allow the Amiga to 'see' whatever CF card you have in the PCMCIA drive.

This was how I resolved 'seeing' my Kodak Cardreader/SmartMedia card using my HIGHWAY USB card, similar situation, I was expecting the SM card to pop up as an icon on Workbench, and allow me access but it didn't until I added the filesystem for the Amiga to read it.

good luck and let us know if this works. .

dunno on that one - I just used the version that came on the Poseidon USB stack floppy, that came with the HIGHWAY card - but I haven't had any problems with messing up the SM cards to date yet (barring one incident with my wife's mac messing up the card and it locking the Amiga up afterward - but that wasn't the Amiga's fault).
