I don't like it for the most part unless I've been talkign to the person a long time already and know them well. I'm pretty camera shy and video shy. I can understand the reluctance. It's not really weird if you are long term friends but initially, early in a relationship or whatever you want to call it, I'm not comfortable with it. You did the right thing and am glad you blocked him in the end.

Dont' feel bad at all. Regardless of the reason he wanted to so bad, respect for another person should be the foundation to build on from the beginning and he didn't respect your wishes by continued pestering about it. You don't want a guy like that. You can do better than that.
