A little context
What the camera emoji means
๐ท (camera) is photography; ๐ธ (camera with flash, Emoji 1.0) is a photo being taken โ the selfie, the paparazzi flash, โpics or it didnโt happenโ. ๐ฅ (movie camera) and ๐น (video camera) are filming, ๐คณ the selfie arm. In captions ๐ธ credits the photographer (โ๐ธ by Samโ), which is its most useful job.
Usually a photo credit: ๐ธ followed by who took the picture.
What is the difference between ๐ท and ๐ธ?
๐ธ has a flash and suggests a photo being taken; ๐ท is the object.
