The camera is recognised as a scsi device, in /proc/bus/ there is an
entry for USB but the damn thing wouldn't let the camera mount. I tried
/dev/sda1 and a host of other devices. The message always is:

/dev/sda1 is not a valid block device

There are three modules loaded: usbcore, usb-storage and usb-ohci. Maybe
the reason is SL8.1 ?
