Please post back the output of your lsusb while the device is plugged in as we need the manufacturer id and product id for your camera from that. Also the version of Ubuntu or its derivative you are running.
EDIT: You are saying the camera isn't visible under "Places" as well, correct? Try sudo nautilus and see if it is visible then.

still cant see it under sudo nautilus either. Wouldnt the udev rules apply to all usb storage devices, my flash drives still mount as before, it is just the camera that doesnt.
