"Camera cannot lie" nghĩa là gì?


"Camera cannot lie" = camera không nói dối -> nghĩa là nghĩa đen, sự thật.

Ví dụ
According to a phrase dictionary, the notion (ý niệm) that a camera cannot lie can in some form or another be traced back to 1859, not long after photographs became widely available to the public. It was a tempting illusion: that because a photograph directly captures a scene, unlike the interpreted image of a painting or sketch, it is a more “honest” medium.

Photographers (thợ ảnh), especially amateur (nghiệp dư) photographers, will tell you that the camera cannot lie. This only proves that photographers, especially amateur photographers, can, for the dry plate can fib (nói dối) as badly as the canvas on occasion.

He was also conscious of the power of journalism (ngành báo chí) and the media, saying: “The camera cannot lie, but it can be an accessory (thiết bị) to untruth.” On his investigations, he once said: “I tried to do – all I hoped to do – was to shed a little light. And if that light grew weeds, we’d have to try and pull them up.”

But, those two sides combined with the way he copes with awkward questions seem to set him up perfectly for a career in politics (chính trị). If we accept the camera cannot lie, Kohli uttered (thốt ra) obscenities (tục tĩu) in two languages at Hagley Oval.
