I can confirm comment 20. Using KDE 4.11.3 (Kubuntu 13.10) the PTP camera 
(Canon PowerShot A495) can only be accessed in dolphin as root. As user dolphin 
shows no files (camera:/).
There is no difference between the local install an using the 13.10 live-dvd.

With Kubuntu 12.04 everything works fine (both: local install and live-
cd).

I have tried the live-cd Xubuntu 13.10: accessing camera works with
thunar (shows it as gphoto2://[usb:002,003]/)

So back to the local installation of Kubuntu 13.10: after installing
XFCE and creating a test user, this user is able to access the camera as
normal user with dolphin (camera:/) unter XFCE.
