At 30 hours, the pH of the whey was 5.2, but I read last week that the cheese would have been more acidic so maybe I was measuring the wrong thing and I'm wondering now if I left them a bit too long. Everything after the brining seems to have gone really well, so I'm hopeful.
I've seen recommendations for Cam pH's as low as 4.4 so you are probably fine.
Geotricum eats lactic acid so I think that a lower pH Cam would simply take longer to ripen than a higher pH Cam everything else being equal. The drop in pH sets the stage for the
P. Candidum to do its thing. The Cam softens because the pH rises above the isoelectric point of the milk proteins and when this happens the proteins become water loving and everything goes gooey.
About a month ago I made some Cam from a cheap P&H milk just to see what it would be like. My final pH stalled at 4.84 and after a few hours of sitting there I decided it was not going to go any lower and salted it. It did its "Cam thing" and I wrapped it at about 10 days and put in in the cold fridge. I noticed that it was getting soft faster than the last batch so I pulled one wheel out and opened it after a day in the cave and a day on the counter. The rind was perfect but the paste rapidly leaked out. It was a white sticky liquid with a mild, but nondescript taste.
Obviously, it had not had the time for the paste to develop a cam-like flavor. I attribute this to the high(er) pH at salting.
I think a cam needs about six weeks of cold fridge to develop good flavor and you need to have a pH at salting around 4.5-4.6 to get this. I'd error on the low side and will go to 4.4 on my next batch if I can get it.
