| Phrase | camera |
| Text | The word "camera," in this podcast, means a device used to take photographs: "Don't forget to bring your camera when you go on vacation." A person who is "camera-shy" is someone who doesn't like to be in photographs, so he or she hides from the camera: "Please don't be camera-shy. Your grandmother really enjoys seeing pictures of you." The phrase "on camera" means while a video was being recorded: "The police watched tapes of the man stealing stereos on camera." The phrase "off camera" means without being recorded by a video camera: "They say their dog can bark 'I love you,' but that it only ever happens off camera, so they can't prove it." Finally, when talking about printing and graphic design, "camera-ready" describes a document that is ready to be printed: "This is a camera-ready version, so please don't make any revisions unless they're absolutely necessary." |
