Stan,

 It was a Sony stand-alone camera - DSC-HX10V - probably 6-8 years old

Doug, were you using a camera flash or cell phone led flash?

This has been noted before but it bears repeating. Flash photos of your running Pi board will usually lead to crashes. I was reminded of this again tonight when taking some photos near the Pi. The flash was not pointed directly at the Pi and it crashed so it is very sensitive. The fix is to not do that or put the Pi in an opaque case and keep the cover on.
