Camera

camera is a miscellaneous item in item asylum. It is a digital camera with a large flashbulb.
== Functionality ==
With the camera equipped, clicking will cause the user to use the camera. They will chat a random message, accompanied by the sound of a shutter closing and a bright flash from the camera. The flash affects a 15×5×3 stud area directly in front of the user. Any victims caught in the flash's area of effect will take 12.5 damage, recieve a short period of hitstun, and temporary blindness by a white flash. If a victim were to have an item equipped, using camera will forcibly unequip their item, though this can happen only once per use. 
Any enemy hit by camera will visually have 3 to 6 stars spawn on their head which will quickly shrink and afterwards dissapear for the duration of their stun time.
camera goes on a 7.5 second cooldown after each use.

== Tips ==
* camera is a highly versatile tool. Use it to stun a player, either to run away from them, or to close in to finish them off.
* camera is strongest with high DPS items like scythe and real knife, as enemies will be unable to react with knockback items that would otherwise severely limit the damage these items can do.
* Combining mobility boosters with camera grants the user one of the most powerful hit-and-run tactics in the entire game, allowing the user to close in on a target, blind them with the camera, and finish them off with their melee item before leaving.
* It is best to use camera when at the same height level with the enemy, as even a jump could cause a miss due to its hitbox.

== Trivia ==
* It has the exact same model as the Camera from Garry's Mod.
* camera uses the legacy hitbox system, causing its hitbox to be invisible when the Hitbox Debug setting is on.
* The stars that appear on a victim's head when stunned also appear with spear's stun.
* camera is blacklisted in JGN/BOSS as its poor damage output and long cooldown barely have any effect on bosses.
* camera cannot forcibly unequip items if attempted to use against most NPCs, like the Combat Dummies in uncertified. This is because they are specifically intended to use said items.
