Camera vision is the idea that a camera sees the world differently from the human eye. A camera has one fixed viewpoint, a frame and a lens, and it records everything in front of it without choosing. Because of this, people often believe that camera images are more objective than human seeing, even though the photographer makes many choices.
Walter Benjamin wrote about this in the 1930s with his idea of the "optical unconscious". He argued that the camera reveals things the eye normally misses, such as movements frozen in a fraction of a second or details seen through enlargement.
