The '''camera''' is an inanimate [[mob]]-like [[entity]] that is capable of capturing and storing images. {{IN|edu}}, it works together with the [[portfolio]] item to create collections of [[photo]]s.<ref name="screenshot-edu">https://aka.ms/MEEBookAndQuill</ref>
== Obtaining ==
The camera can be obtained in the [[Creative inventory]] in ''Minecraft Education''. It can be obtained by either NBT editors, inventory editors, or glitches {{in|Bedrock}}.
== Usage ==
Using a camera from one's [[inventory]] captures a first-person screenshot. It may also be placed, creating a camera [[entity]] that can track the user, and take pictures from the camera's perspective. Photos that are taken with the camera appear in the [[portfolio]].
Close-up snapshots of an [[item]] on the ground can be taken by holding the Shift key while right-clicking.
Screenshots from camera can be inserted into [[book and quill]].<ref name="screenshot-edu"/>
Photos that are taken with the camera block are stored in {{cd|[[com.mojang]]/screenshots}}.
== Behavior ==
[[File:CameraMob in a boat.png|thumb|Camera in a [[boat]]]]
Cameras are mostly inanimate [[entities]], but they occasionally move when falling and they move at the [[player]]'s direction when they take a picture.
Cameras are classified as [[mob]]s in the game code, they obey gravity, allowing them to fall and having effects common to all other [[entities]]. Cameras can be affected by [[status effects]]. They can be killed by [[Harming]] and [[Decay]] splash/lingering potions, and they play the player death sound and fall to their side and disappear, droping no item. Cameras can't be [[leashed]] but they can ride on [[boats]] and [[minecart]]s.
[[File:CameraMob being damaged by poison.png|thumb|Camera being harmed by [[poison]] effect]]
Cameras are harmed by [[fire]], [[lava]], and [[campfire]] damage but they never die from it. Cameras can be destroyed by any [[projectile]] used by the player, such as [[arrows]], [[tridents]], or [[snowball]]s. Cameras never drown and are invulnerable to the [[void]], [[cacti]], [[falling block]]s, to [[explosion]]s or by [[firework rocket]]s.
[[Warden]]s, [[wither]]s, [[zoglin]]s, [[goat]]s, and [[vindicator]]s named Johnny attack cameras, but the camera remains undamaged; [[pufferfish]] also inflate when an camera is nearby. [[Foxes]] don't sleep near cameras as well.

|{{HistoryLine||v0.2.0|[[File:Camera BE2.png|50px]] [[File:Music Disc Blocks JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added cameras.
|Changed item and tripod textures.
|To use a camera, equip it in the [[player]]'s hand, then look in the direction the player wants the picture to be taken. Long-press the screen, and a camera [[drops]] to the ground where the player are standing. Step back, then press on the camera until it starts emitting smoke [[particles]]. The smoke means a picture has been taken, and the camera may disappear immediately afterward.
|Cameras have infinite uses.
|The Entity ID is 62 and item 456.<ref>https://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1233138-i-found-the-camera-id/</ref>}}

|If the player spawns a camera, leaves the [[world]] and joins back, it summons [[lightning]].}}
|{{HistoryLine||v0.14.2|The camera [[item]] ID has been changed to 498, but it cannot be used at the moment. The [[entity]] can now be spawned with a [[spawn egg]] with a [[damage]] value of 62.
|According to the language files of the game, the empty label that shows up whenever hovering a finger to a camera would now say "Take Picture". However, the button doesn't do anything.}}
|{{HistoryLine||v0.15.0|dev=build 1|The previous empty label on the camera mentioned above now displays the words "Take Picture".
|The [[health]] of the camera [[entity]] is now {{hp|2}} instead {{hp|4}}.
|The camera no longer summons [[lightning]].}}
|{{HistoryLine||v0.16.0|dev=build 1|The camera now has a [[block]] form in [[inventory]], but still spawns the entity. However, the block can be placed only with [[commands]] and editing.

=== Future ===
At the Minecraft [[Pocket Edition]] panel at [[MineCon 2012]], as well as one of [[Johan Bernhardsson|Jbernhardsson]]'s livestreams, it was stated that future plans include trying to have a proper use for cameras, perhaps an easier way to take screenshots and share them with others.<ref>{{ytl|YMhyX_lKWV4}}</ref> In the BlockTalk Q&A, the camera was briefly mentioned as part of a broader "sharing" theme planned for {{el|be}} in the future.<ref>{{ytl|Ruf6tvqsD84}}</ref>
It later got implemented into {{el|ee}}, using the camera to make screenshots and share them in a special book.
== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}
== Trivia ==
* A camera prevents a [[book and quill]] from working. Attempting to craft it or obtain it by commands gives a regular book instead, due to non-implementation of photo attaching to written books.{{verify|this feature is implemented in Minecraft Education, perhaps not in Bedrock Edition?}}
* The camera can take a screenshot, which appears a bit smaller with a thick paper outline having cuts on its edges, making it look like an old photograph.
* This feature is hidden from the Creative inventory and from the {{cmd|give}} command item menu.
