Camera as a technological tool, establishes a modern relationship with the world; transforms and visualizes every space and object by recording. First of all, in this article, what kind of a world camera creates and its relationship with modernity is discussed. Then, the development of camera movement abilities is examined and it is seen that it has a fixed point of view that overlapped with theater audience in the early stages of cinema history. However, over time, different points of view were obtained by moving the camera. Elimination of the Italian-style scene and perspective is also addressed in connection with the movement of the camera. Throughout this article, an object/means centered perspective is used, and camera is examined as a historical phenomenon, regardless of content. In response to object centered approach, mechanical eye seems to record every corner of physical world. Accompanied by these discussions, in the last part of the article, "Man with a Movie Camera" is examined in terms of the connection of cinematographic elements with the world. In film analysis, it is shown that different cinematographic elements such as close-up and long shots, camera's involvement in everyday life, the increase of point of views transform physical world. Throughout the article, technological determinism forms the conceptual and theoretical framework; historical and sociological analysis methods are also used together. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
