Can I connect my USB Flash Drive to my video camera with USB interface?

No. USB standard is based on a master-slave type of communication between the two interconnected devices. Today typically only devices that include a CPU running an operating system such as Mac, Windows, Windows CE, UNIX or Linux may play the master side. All other portable devices support only the slave side. Two slaves can not communicate to each other.
