You can use the "host" qualifier to see just traffic to the camera. Something like:
   tcpdump -v host 192.168.1.51

That should let you catch some traffic. If needed, you can watch with a windows 
program long enough to look at traffic. Don't forget to use the 'script' command 
of similar to save the output.
