Thanks for help!
At the end of the reinstallation of the WIA driver (step III , no 13)
I got the answers to my missery. It says:
Check that the camera's [Communication] setting is set to [Normal], and then
turn the camera off.
My son had recently used the camera, and played intensively with the menues
(like the kids are doing with their
mobile phones). The connection on the camera had been set to PTP. That was
the problem.
