Sebastian, perhaps I was not clear enough earlier. This is a bug! I cannot access my photos from _any application_ unless I kill gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor.

However, I have tracked down the bug a little more. If I plug in my camera BEFORE turning it on, I get the bug. If I turn my camera on, and THEN plug it in, I get the standard prompt and can browse my pictures. Does everyone else have the same behavior?

To clarify for you, Sebastian, here are reproduction steps:

1) My camera is off.
2) I plug in my camera to USB.
3) I turn my camera on.
4) I wait one minute.
5) I get an error message popup saying "Unable to mount Nikon Corp. Coolpix 4600 (ptp)". (See attached screenshot.)
6) After that, "Nikon Corp. Coolpix 4600 (ptp)" is listed in Nautilus, but double-clicking on it to browse pops up, "Unable to mount location". (See 2nd attached screenshot.)

I hope this will convince you, Sebastian. I wish you would not be so arrogant with your users.
