What can we do with the cameras from Get Famous?

Hello, so is it just me or do the video camera objects from Get Famous EP have *some* gameplay with them but no actual meaningful purpose besides cool animations? I wonder why couldn't Maxis give us video cameras and tools to make cool Sims 4 movies with Get Famous that Sims could watch from their TVs etc, if we will go further with my question…

The only thing we can do with them is take pictures. If you have Moschino SP you can use a tripod with them.

Really? I never knew that. Is it any different than with the other tripods? Thank you for letting me know, cat. :)

I don't think ya'll are talking about the same thing. Get Famous has video equipment that NPCs operate when your sim is in the acting career, but you can't do much else with them. Cat's referring to the regular cameras that shoot pictures, if I'm not mistaken?

Cams are confusing. I think the hand held cameras were introduced with GTW, but later patched in for basegame. I think one more camera was added with Myshino SP, and there is also the the photo studio camera with 8 backdrops from GTW (defin itely not hand held...) Aaaand we have the drone (CL or GF?), not sure if we can take any saved footage with that one though, it might be mostly for social media vids. Tripods are much easier, as we only got it in the Myshino pack :)

OMG I just realized he misunderstood LOL. :lol: how would it even be possible to place a camera on film camera? Lol. But yeah shame on Maxis for not including making movies and such with this pack, one of their biggest missed opportunities ever in Sims 4 pack history.
