• 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
• 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 /give command item menu.

The camera can be obtained in the Creative inventory in Minecraft Education. It can be obtained by either commands "/give" in Bedrock Edition.

To get the block form of the camera in Bedrock Edition using an NBT editor you need to set the item name of the block in the inventory slot (name:) to item.camera, then you need to add a compound tag called Block and inside of that put the int tag version: 18040335 and the text tag name: minecraft:camera into the block compound tag. For the usable item / spawn egg form of the camera you just need to set the item name of the block in the inventory slot (name:) to camera, you don't need to add the block compound for this form of the camera though.
