You'll find that FreeBSD does not know how to handle this device, hence
it uses the generic USB device driver. I don't think you are to get it
to work easily here. I had the same problems with my FujiFilm. However,
FreeBSD-5.0 supports my camera 100%, I no longer get ugen devices, it is
picked up as a proper USB mass storage device.
