Documentary Camera

A documentary camera is a type of camera used primarily in filmmaking and journalism to capture real-life events as they happen. It is designed for versatility, often lightweight and easy to handle, allowing filmmakers to follow subjects naturally and unobtrusively. These cameras aim to produce authentic footage that reflects reality, helping viewers experience genuine moments without posed or staged scenes. Whether handheld or mounted on stabilizers, documentary cameras focus on capturing the truth, providing an honest, compelling visual record of real-world stories and environments.
