Obtaining[]

The camera can be obtained in the creative inventory in Education Edition. It can be obtained by either NBT editors, inventory editors, or glitches in Bedrock Edition.

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.

Photos that are taken with the camera block are stored in %localappdata%\Packages\MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\screenshots.

Future[]

At the Minecraft Pocket Edition panel at MineCon 2012, as well as one of 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.[6] In the BlockTalk Q&A, the camera was briefly mentioned as part of a broader "sharing" theme planned for Bedrock Edition in the future.[7] It later got implemented into Education Edition, using the camera to make screenshots and share them in a special book.
