'''''Cameran''''' was a [[Youma]] owned by [[Nephrite]]. Her essence was implanted into the camera owned by [[Kijin Shinokawa]].
 
  
The [[youma]] Cameran that was owned by [[Nephrite]] was recruited by him as an aid in gathering human energy for the revival of [[Queen Metalia]]. Her mission was to help him gather the energy belonging to the award-winning photographer [[Kijin Shinokaw]]. [[Kijin Shinokawa]] who took out the highest honour in a Japanese National Photography contest became an instant celebrity in the eyes of [[Usagi Tsukino]], [[Naru Osaka]] and two of her class mates. Unfortunately [[Kijin Shinokawa]] ; fell victim to [[Nephrite]] who took advantage of his dedication to photography by implanting via his evil crest, the essence of the [[youma]] Cameran inside his camera, after ironically saving him from falling off a cliff face during a personal photo shoot of a sunset harbour scene. Whilst [[Nephrite]] was performing intonation with the stars, the main star Sirius confirmed that his target [[Kijin Shinokawa]]  will serve [[Queen Metalia]] well once he attains his highest energy level. To achieve this, the [[youma]] possessed [[Kijin Shinokawa]] to take pictures of live targets teaming with energy i.e. young women where his energy level will increase towards its peak.
+
As the Youma's presence encouraged Kijin's energy to reach its maximum peak, he held an open photoshoot, during which every girl whose picture he took vanished. [[Usagi Tsukino|Usagi]] had been present at the photoshoot but was distracted by [[Luna]], and managed to escape being trapped herself. She transformed into [[Sailor Moon]] and kicked the camera out of Kijin's hands, at which point Cameran emerged from the camera.
  
Subsequently, [[Kijin Shinokawa]] sponsored a model quest for young women to participate in. A deluded [[Usagi Tsukino]] was folly to this as she was selected along with [[Naru Osaka]], her [[Haruna| teacher]] and hundreds of other girls for his photo shoot in the New Japan Hotel<ref>URL="http://www.soul-hunter.com/sailormoon/profiles/villains/motd/cameran.php"</ref>. [[Luna]] had a hunch over the intentions of [[Kijin Shinokawa]] after noticing how he was not choosy over the women he selected for his photo shoot and this was confirmed after she witnesses [[Kijin Shinokawa]] photograph an unlucky group of five women who disappear inside an alternate dimension which drained their energy for [[Queen Metallia]]. [[Luna]] tries to warn [[Usagi Tsukino]] but [[Usagi Tsukino]] who was more interested in preparing for the photo shoot dismisses [[Luna]] speculation, until she ruins [[Usagi Tsukino]]’s swim suit by ripping a bow from it. A furious [[Usagi Tsukino]] gives chase to [[Luna]], who eventually showed her what was going on. Consequently [[Usagi Tsukino]] confronts [[Kijin Shinokawa]] and transforms into [[Sailor Moon]]. As [[Sailor Moon]] she dodged photo shoots from Kijin Shinokawa (Peter Fisher) and eventually disarmed him of his [[wikipedia:camera|camera]] by using her [[Sailor Moon Kick]] to knock it out of his hands into a nearby [[wikipedia:pool|pool]] <ref>URL="http://www.fortunecity.com/rivendell/everquest/90/C/cameran.html"</ref>. As [[Sailor Moon]] tended towards an unconscious [[Kijin Shinokawa]] , Cameran made her simultaneous appearance. Cameran proceeded to battle [[Sailor Moon]] as she used her ''Shutter Attack'' (renamed ''Negazoom'' in the dubbed North American version of the anime) to trap [[Sailor Moon]]. The ''Shutter Attack'' was unique as it allowed for Cameran to use the palm of her right hand to create from there a giant eyeball which was capable of firing bursts of white energy <ref>URL="http://www.fortunecity.com/rivendell/everquest/90/C/cameran.html"</ref> at her intended target thus causing them to disappear (supposedly in an alternate dimension). [[Sailor Moon]] managed to dodge her initial shutter attack but at the cost of loosing [[Kijin Shibakawa]] to whom she was tending to. Again [[Sailor Moon]] was very lucky to dodge Cameran’s attacks with [[Luna]] even taking a shot for her. A confident Cameran produced from her fist, two-dimensional photos of her two recent victims ([[Kijin Shibakawa]] and [[Luna]]) before showing them to [[Sailor Moon]] and cornering her. Fortunately; [[Sailor Moon]] received assistance from [[Sailor Mercury]] and [[Sailor Mars]] who offered her help. [[Sailor Mercury]] used her ''Sabão Spray (Mercury bubbles) attack '' to fill the air with bubbles and mist, while [[Sailor Mars]] <ref>URL="http://www.soul-hunter.com/sailormoon/profiles/villains/motd/cameran.php"</ref>” used her [[ofuda]] against Cameran. But no matter how many times [[Sailor Mars]], would use her [[ofuda]] against the [[youma]], the speed of Cameran ''Shutter Attack'' made it impossible as she was able use her to deflect each of it; and even made [[Sailor Mercury]] and [[Sailor Mars]] to vanish without a trace as well. After producing trophy images of [[Sailor Mercury]] and [[Sailor Mars]] for [[Sailor Moon]] to look at, Cameran again cornered [[Sailor Moon]] but this time, in front of a mirror. In a rare show of brilliance, [[Sailor Moon]] tricked the [[youma]] into firing at a mirror. As [[Sailor Moon]] leapt out of the way, the evil bursts of white energy being emitted from Cameran’s ''Shutter Attack'' backfired as it reflected back onto her leaving her seriously weakened and powerless. Cameran was subsequently by [[Sailor Moon]]’s [[Moon Tiara Action|Moon Tiara]]. Every victim of Cameran, reappeared as Kijin Shibakawa (Peter Fisher) called off the model quest.

The Youma attacked by firing bolts of white energy from the palm of her hand, which caused anything struck by them to vanish, similar to the effects of Kijin's camera. After she had trapped Kijin and Luna, she managed to corner Sailor Moon, but [[Sailor Mercury]] and [[Sailor Mars]] arrived and distracted her. The two newly-arrived [[Sailor Senshi]] also ended up victim to the Youma's attack, however, and she once more ended up backing Sailor Moon into a corner.

Cameran was a Youma owned by Nephrite. Her essence was implanted into the camera owned by Kijin Shinokawa as part of Nephrite's plan to gather energy for the Dark Kingdom.

As the Youma's presence encouraged Kijin's energy to reach its maximum peak, he held an open photoshoot, during which every girl whose picture he took vanished. Usagi had been present at the photoshoot but was distracted by Luna, and managed to escape being trapped herself. She transformed into Sailor Moon and kicked the camera out of Kijin's hands, at which point Cameran emerged from the camera.

The Youma attacked by firing bolts of white energy from the palm of her hand, which caused anything struck by them to vanish, similar to the effects of Kijin's camera. After she had trapped Kijin and Luna, she managed to corner Sailor Moon, but Sailor Mercury and Sailor Mars arrived and distracted her. The two newly-arrived Sailor Senshi also ended up victim to the Youma's attack, however, and she once more ended up backing Sailor Moon into a corner.

Realizing that there was a mirror behind her, Sailor Moon dodged out of the way of the Youma's next attack and allowed it to hit the mirror instead. This caused the attack to rebound, weakening Cameran and allowing Sailor Moon to finish her off with Moon Tiara Action.
