The Cameraman (1928) is a silent comedy directed by Edward Sedgwick and Buster Keaton.

The story follows a clumsy tintype photographer who falls in love with a secretary at MGM’s newsreel department. Determined to impress her, he buys a movie camera and sets out to become a cameraman. His misadventures — from chaotic Chinatown parades to a hilarious swimming pool sequence — showcase Keaton’s trademark physical comedy and inventive gags.
