A camera takes advantage of [light] by combining optics and mechanics, chemistry and electronics, in such a way that light gets imprinted on a light-sensitive material.

In the case of analog cameras, the medium is the photographic film. In the case of digital cameras, the medium is an electronic sensor. Both the film and sensor react differently to different amounts of light, therefore recreating the scenery in front of the camera.
