sorry for jumping into the thread late.
i am not sure how whether your camera matches the one mentioned in my post
above (unfortunately the keywords in the name are totally meaningless,
and there is this bad habit of using the same name for totally different
devices).

As someone mentioned, if the camera requires isochronous mode then it
won't work. Some cameras do fall back to non-isochronous mode on
USB1, which however requires that you connect the camera
to an USB1 hub (assuming you can find one) or directly to the host
and removing the "ehci" controller from the kernel config file
(as annoying as it might be).

cheers
