That still wasn't really right. Using udevtest in a loop for all "udevinfo -d" devices showed that the
camera symlink was being created twice (for sda and sda1) with the last one prevailing. Without the
"KERNEL" qualification, it was getting created three times, and sg2 prevailed. Changing the "KERNEL"
qualification to "sd??" eliminates spurious symlink creation:
BUS="usb", KERNEL="sd??", SYSFS{product}="Sony DSC" NAME="%k" SYMLINK="camera"
