Camera shy

[Atomic_Piggy]

In my on going crusade for all achievements (I'm a perfectionist D: ) I am having difficulty with the camera shy achievement in portal.
I know you use portals to knock them off the walls however:
1) There are cameras before you ge the portal that cannot be revisited
2) Some cameras are on "un-portable" walls.

So how do I get these? Or have i just missed some of the ones on the portalble walls?

EDIT: OH BTW, I can get about 25 cameras in total out of 33.

[dumba$$]

iv got the same problem, only whenever i portal them of the wall, i dont get the exp. i just get GLaDOS telling me off and no "one down".

Also, GlaDos tells me off as well.

Some you cannot get. The achievement only includes ones you can get. I'm stuck on 32/33 though.

Yeah, I can only get 32 / 33 too. It REALLY pissed me off!

i was able to get 33/33, you might have missed one in the very first room u get the portal gun (blue), theres 3. otherwise look everywhere. ignore the non-portalbe wall cameras.

Ah, that might be what I'm missing. Thanks.

^ I found a similar list invaluable when I did this achievement.

Nice upload ^^ That could come in handy for new Portal players.

That is helpful. Cheers.

I think I got 31 before reaching the party. That pissed me off.

[TombRaiser]

I was trying to go for the 33 again, but still only ended up with 25... Grrr...and I was looking really really hard! Oh, well, I'll attempt it again another day. Meh!

[TombRaiser]

Finally got the 33! About time! :)

I am having a problem with the Camera Shy achievement also. I'm running Portal from the Orange Box that I bought on Steam. I am in the last room in test chamber 18 (the one with all the multi-level platforms) and, at this point, I have destroyed 29 cameras. When I get to this room and take this camera off the wall, the game will not give me credit for it. I am still showing only 29 cameras.

Does anyone know why this is happening? What can I do to get credit for this camera?

[The_Strider]

Thanks, finally got my achievement(Xbox version lol!).

[Shadowcasterx4ff]

I tend to miss quite a few (I've gotten about 27), but I don't know where to find the others. Any tricky spots?

ive actually gotten this achievment on my first try, just taking a few quick scans around the area and if i see a camera on a portalable wall, i get rid of it, pretty simple for me

[mocho loco]

i have a problem with that same achievment, but instead every time i take a camera off, it says i have 0 cameras off! i also bought the orange box

Nailed it!!
