Firstly i cant find any info on sony's site about the camera you mentioned
which was "(sony digital camera, dc-s50)" are you sure thats correct.??
I did find a DSC-U50 which seems to fit the bill.!!

It seems according to the above the device has been found, which means it
should be mountable, however before that can happen we need to know if
things are in place.
Now you also said in your origanal message (sorry but i just noticed it)
" Fedora (with 2.6 kernel, scsi emulation not selected at compile)."
That means no scsi emulation and hence NO USB camera can be mounted.
Stop here go back to start, install a 2.4.xx kernel surely fedora comes
with a pre compiled 2.4.xx kernel and all its modules.???
Or if not then reconfigure, recompile and install a kernel with support
for your hardware and include SCSI emulation.
Under "ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support"
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI=m
Under "SCSI device support"
CONFIG_SCSI=y
CONFIG_SCSI_PROC_FS=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y
CONFIG_CHR_DEV_ST=m
CONFIG_CHR_DEV_OSST=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=y
CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=y
+ USB support for all your hardware and.
CONFIG_USB_STORAGE=m

You will get that from all disks, you cannot simply mount a "whole" disk,
one mounts disk partitions.

You need to have support for dos/windows filesysytems either in your
kernel or compiled as modules
Under "DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems"
CONFIG_FAT_FS=m
CONFIG_MSDOS_FS=m
CONFIG_VFAT_FS=m
CONFIG_NTFS_FS=m

Make sure you install the kernel and configure your bootloader properly
before rebooting.
I am presuming you know all that anyway.
