The only problem with that is that on most systems, the /var/log/messages
file has only a subset of all the messages logged. You could temporarily
log all messages to a file (say, /var/log/all) for trouble-shooting. In the
long term, this can fill up your disk with log messages very quickly.

That should be easy... something like
alias sda name-of-usb-camera-module
to /etc/modules.conf (or maybe
alias scsi_hostadapter name-of-use-camera-module
if modprobe does not like a specific SCSI device name) should do the trick.
