Thanks for that Ron, but the camera mounts again on /dev/sda1 and when I want to write the udev rules for it they won't write but choke on the attributes of:

• ATTRS{serial} command not found
• ATTRS{model} command not found
• ATTRS{modalias} command not found

But no matter, if I have trouble again I know what to do. It's fine, I just thought others might have this problem.

Thanks to Kushal and yourself for your suggestions.

Be well,
Charlie
