Believe it or not, that is normal for the camera.

When you first log into a camera that has been factory reset, it has no password for any accounts. The first time it asks you for the password, you aren't logging in, you are just setting the password for the root user. Once you go past that screen, it goes to the regular login screen and asks you for a user and password. On later logins, it will go straight to the login screen.
