To start taking shots with a **Camera** you'll need to load a [Film](attachments/film).

<div style={{ textAlign: "center" }}>
<Asset location="exposure:attachments" width={400} title="Camera Attachments" style={{ textAlign: "center" }}/>
*Using the camera while **sneaking** or right-clicking the camera in GUI opens **Camera Attachments** menu*
</div>

## Attachments
There are 4 types of attachments you can put on/in the camera:
- [Film](attachments/film)
- [Flash](attachments/flash)
- [Lens](attachments/lens)
- [Filter](attachments/filter)

<div name='INFO' style={{ display: 'inline-block', margin: '2px' }}>
    <div style={{ display: 'flex', alignItems: 'top', backgroundColor: '#21252b', borderRadius: '6px', padding: '8px 12px' }}>
      <InfoIcon style={{ color: '#63b3eb', marginRight: '8px' }} width={20} />
      <span style={{ color: '#63b3eb', fontSize: '15px' }}>• Hovering over parts of the camera will show tooltip with additional information.\
                                                           • Clicking on the Lens or Filter parts will show all available items for the attachment.\
                                                           • You can quickly insert/swap an attachment by right-clicking the camera in GUI with item.</span>
    </div>
</div>

When Film is loaded, *use* the **Camera** to look through **Viewfinder**

<div style={{ textAlign: "center" }}>
<Asset location="exposure:viewfinder" width={500} title="Viewfinder Controls" style={{ textAlign: "center" }}/>
*Pressing/holding sneak or middle mouse button shows **Camera Controls***
</div>

## Camera Controls
- Shutter Speed - *(brightens or darkens the image)*
- Composition Guide
- Self-Timer *Off/1/2/5/10 seconds* - *(when ticking, nearby entities will be attracted by the noise, and will look at the camera)*
- [Flash](attachments/flash) *on/off/auto* (if installed)

<div name='INFO' style={{ display: 'inline-block', margin: '2px' }}>
    <div style={{ display: 'flex', alignItems: 'top', backgroundColor: '#21252b', borderRadius: '6px', padding: '8px 12px' }}>
      <InfoIcon style={{ color: '#63b3eb', marginRight: '8px' }} width={20} />
      <span style={{ color: '#63b3eb', fontSize: '15px' }}>Controls UI also shows Focal Length and Film Frames\
                                                           Zooming when controls are shown will be slower and more precise</span>
    </div>
</div>

## Selfie Mode
For those who want to be the main subject of a photo - there is a selfie mode.
- Accessed by the F5 key (by default).
- When looking through Viewfinder - F5 will toggle only between first-person and third-person-front views.
