Codac R9000

The Codac R9000 was a type of a photo camera manufactured in the pre-War world by the Codac company. It is a quest item in Fallout: New Vegas.

It made high-resolution color photographs and was sturdy enough to survive even the Great War, as it was used to photograph the ruined Bakersfield.

Characteristics
The Codac R9000 is a camera used to take pictures of landmarks in Fallout: New Vegas. It behaves similarly to a gun and causes nearby non-player characters to react as though you had fired a weapon when used.

Even after the quest is finished, this is still marked as a "Quest Item" and cannot be dropped. If you have it in your inventory when you begin Dead Money, it is one of the few things that are not removed by the Sierra Madre security system, but it is totally useless there.

Location
The Codac R9000 is given by Michael Angelo at the beginning of Classic Inspiration in order to take photographs of various locations throughout the Mojave Wasteland.

Bugs

 * The camera is a quest item and because of this it cannot be discarded when the quest is completed and unfortunately due to a bug it is not removed when the quest is turned in either.
 * On the PC, it can be removed from the inventory by using the console command . If the first command doesn't work, you can use.
 * This weapon can strangely be repaired with a hunting rifle (even without the Jury Rigging perk).

Behind the scenes
