Yes (of course, whatever you use will effectively become a camera, but I digress).
Basically, a camera is a light-tight box with a hole in it that allows light to enter the box in such a way that it strikes a film cell and leaves an emulsion or impression of light that, when developed, makes a picture.
You can look up "pin hole cameras" on Wikipedia or Google and find out how the process of taking pictures without a proper camera has been going on for a very long time.

∙ 15y agoYes, but the scope of your work would be very limited. There are methods for producing images photographically that do not require a camera per se, but would require a setup that performed many of the same functions. For example, you could arrange objects on photographic paper, then expose and develop the paper to show the shadows left by the objects. But all of this would have to happen in the darkroom (compare "Camera Obscura") so perhaps you are back to using a camera after all, after a fashion.
