I just uploaded 4.14 today.  If you are in a position to try that out, I'd be 
very glad to know if it fixes this issue.

If not, then as a work-around: I wonder if you can set the camera to act as a 
USB device and import from the filesystem?

Finally, while I realize this makes digikam unusable for you, the  bug 
severity "grave" is intended for a package completely unusable by most users.  
I don't believe it applies in this case.

Best,
-Steve
