The persona someone takes on when a camera (still or video) is on them. When someone is "in the lime light" and works the camera.
We've all seen the photo shoot scenario where the photographer says "make love to the camera". It's the look and chemistry someone has with the camera that is "sexy"
However! This person MUST exhibit the "X" factor needed to be successful, entertaining, or "Hot" on camera or in pictures.
The antithesis (polar opposite) of Camera Hot is "Camera Not". Camera Not is used when someone is completely stumbling over their words and is incompetent and lacks adequate performance. Usually this person "acts a fool" on camera. Annoying, stupid comments, and babbling is common.

A euphemism for 'speed camera' or ‘speeding camera’. A third form of tax. Commonly used in the UK by government to mask the true intent of the device; revenue collection!
