Digikam could offer better help/workaround in this case:
I have reported bug 571656, which is likely a duplicate of this one.
I'm getting the following error in digikam.
"""
Failed to connect to the camera. Please make sure it is connected properly and
turned on. Would you like to try again?
[Retry] [Abort]
"""
Digikam could detect this problem and offer to "pkill gvfsd-gphoto2" or
whatever is required - as a workaround.
The real bug is the device getting (b)locked by gvfsd-gphoto2.
