Does your kernel have the "ub" driver configured?  (It's the Device
Drivers -> Block devices -> Low Performance USB Block driver entry in
menuconfig -- or you can just check whether lsmod lists ub.)

If yes, then the ub driver will handle communicating with your camera, 
rather than usb-storage.  Since ub is a low-performance driver, you might 
prefer not to use it.
