I have a new Lumix TZ60 camera, when I plug it into my xubuntu 14.10 laptop I see (in dmesg) :-
[22802.981555] usb 1-1.2: new high-speed USB device number 5 using ehci-pci [22803.076937] usb 1-1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=04da, idProduct=2372 [22803.076944] usb 1-1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [22803.076948] usb 1-1.2: Product: DMC-TZ60 [22803.076952] usb 1-1.2: Manufacturer: Panasonic [22803.076955] usb 1-1.2: SerialNumber: 0000000000000000001X1314210434 [22803.077932] usb 1-1.2: USB disconnect, device number 5 [22803.108684] usbcore: registered new interface driver usb-storage
Is there anything I can do to get it to do better?

I'm guessing that it then attempts to mount as a usb storage device? Does it then give a path for that device?
As I am guessing that if this is an exFAT formatted card then you've hit the bug in Ubuntu where it decides it doesn't know what exFAT is and then won't mount it. If you tell it to mount via mount -t exfat /path/to/device /mount/point then it'll work. I'm basing that on my experience with a Sony AS30V video camera earlier this week which used to work.

No, that's the problem, there seems to be no attempt to automount at all.

It could well be but I don't have a /path/to/device so I'm a bit stuck.

What's the rest of the dmesg output where it detects the mass storage device?
What I have shown here is all there is.
Doing it again produces:-

What on earth is that bit about "Quirks match"? That wasn't there the first time!

Not sure, maybe google does. What does lsusb say and is there no more output after that about scsi devices?
Very few Google hits for "Quirks match".

I just tried plugging it into my desktop xubuntu 14.10 and got:-

Not a lot different except that it does at least have a scsi line.

I'd look in the "Disks" utility (or whatever it's called in your O/S) which will hopefully have an entry for the camera, and see if you can initiate a mount in that, or, work out which device name is so you can mount it yourself - e.g. mount /dev/sdc1....

Aaaaarrrrggggghhhhh!!!!!!
It was simple in the end. I needed to look at the camera end, it was asking what sort of USB connection I wanted - GPS, PC or Pictbridge. When I selected PC up popped the contents of the camera on my desktop.
(It's a camera with a proper viewfinder so it wasn't glaring me in the face on the back of the camera)
