This always happens, unless the user chooses the "do nothing" setting (possibly others, but opening F-spot had not worked before) and checks "always do this." If the user does that, there is no longer this issue of many simultaneous attempts to access the camera causing problems. I can post logs if someone can point out what would be relevant. In any case, the issue seems to be nautilus making multiple simultaneous attempts to access the camera.
