Hi rwright, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Currently, there isn't a method to see the total number of files in a folder via the Dropbox site or app.
The Photos tab on the website, shows all images that are on your account, and not just those in the camera uploads folder.
If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

You can in fact see the number of items on the Camera uploads folder by simply opening said folder on Quickview. From the ALL FILES menu you can hover your mouse pointer over the desired folder, and you will see an option that says "Quickview", and once clicked you will see a sidebar opening, and at the top there will be the folder name followed by the number of items on that folder. I have been doing picture and video backups for my family so this is how I check the correct number of files have been uploaded from each device.

Thanks for the info, but I don't get a "quickview" option when hovering, I get nothing. I do have a "settings" gear wheel and when opened to folder info says nothing. I have a Mac so maybe Windows users have the functionality you've described.
