What kernel version? There have been a pile of mmc related patches to the kernel the last few months with more on the way. Thing is, mkfs.exfat and your camera can obviously write to the card. So it's not write protected or that wouldn't work. Why it can't be mounted read/write sounds like some obscure exfat bug.

What happens if you format it ext4 or btrfs? Does it mount read/write then?

But no seriously, format it in your camera in the end if you're planning on actually using it with the camera to take photos.
