If all you want to do is say manage the actual files(upload/download 
images/etc...) then give FtpDroid a try.  It's open source and based on the 
ProFTPd source code, so you know it's mostly safe.  It also supports the 
standard ProFTPd user management, and you can set up a user to a specific root, 
say to only access DCIM.

I use this both on my smartphone and tablet to transfer files(usually Python 
source code) between the devices.

Now...  If you really wanted to get down and geeky, you could create your own 
management app using RPC and Python!  For example, I built a nice Python RPC 
daemon for my smartphone, so that I can read/send and reply back to text 
messages from my Tablet or PC using a Python RPC Client.  Python for Android 
can also access your Contacts, and lots of other juice stuff, so you can build 
a custom management app using it.  You can also run a Python web framework on 
your smartphone as well, so you could create your own version of AirDroid(if 
you don't trust that sort of software).  I found Bottle.py to run best, as it's 
a single file web framework.
