Camera Wiki Guide

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a camera with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

You can use a camera to take a picture from the first-person perspective:

All photos that you take with your camera will be automatically saved into your portfolio. A camera is an item that you can not make with a crafting table or furnace. It is only available through the Creative Inventory menu or by using a game command to give yourself one.

• Version(s) is the Minecraft version numbers where the item can be found in the menu location listed (we have tested and confirmed this version number).

Item ID and Name

In Minecraft, a camera has the following Name, ID and DataValue:
