How does a camera work?
A camera works like your eyes. It takes in light and makes a picture out of it. Inside the camera is a lens that captures light and bends it so that it can be focused on a special piece of film or a digital sensor.
The lens focuses the light onto the film or sensor, and the light is then recorded as a picture.
The camera also has a shutter, which is like a curtain that opens and closes quickly to let the light in for a short time. When you press the button to take a picture, the shutter opens and the light is recorded on the film or sensor. Then the shutter closes, and the picture is taken!
