This could be metaphorical (the lens is like an eye and film/sensor like the mind/memory) or asking how a camera works (light enters, etc.) or asking about the relationship between the 3D person, the person as seen in a mirror and a photograph by a camera

The camera never lies!
Oftentimes it represents how much money they have.
