A '''holo-imager''' or '''holo-camera''' is a device that records the form and appearance of a subject in three dimensions, so that it can be reproduced in [[holographic]] form. It requires that the subject be captured from multiple angles.

A '''holographic imager''' is a small hand-held device used for capturing the image of a person or thing for the purpose of recreating the object in a [[holosuite]].
In [[2370]], a holo-cam was one of the items [[Miles O'Brien|Miles]] and [[Keiko O'Brien]] intended to bring along on their [[vacation]], but Miles forgot to bring it. He offered to return their [[runabout]] to [[Deep Space 9]] to pick up both the camera and [[Molly O'Brien|Molly]], but Keiko rejected this suggestion. ({{DS9|Tribunal}})

In [[2371]], [[Quark]] used a holographic imager in an attempt to create a custom program of [[Kira Nerys]] for [[Tiron]]. Kira discovered the attempt and sabotaged the program. ({{DS9|Meridian}})

In [[2371]], [[Quark]] attempted to secretly capture [[Major]] [[Kira Nerys]] on a holo-imager, to fulfill his client [[Tiron]]'s request for a [[holosuite]] program of her. Kira caught him and promised that if she found his imager pointed in her direction again, he would end up eating it. ({{DS9|Meridian}})

In [[2373]], [[The Doctor]] used his holo-imager to take pictures of Ensign [[Ahni Jetal]]'s [[birthday party]]. He also took the camera on a [[shuttlecraft]] with her and [[Harry Kim]]. ({{VOY|Latent Image}})

In [[2375]], [[The Doctor]] brought a holo-imager aboard a [[shuttlecraft]] mission to study a [[nebula]]. [[Seven of Nine]] told him that there would be no time for recreational activities. Later, in that year, [[Commander]] [[Chakotay]] took some holo-pictures aboard one of [[Species 8472]]'s [[terrasphere]]s. While aboard, a Replicant [[Boothby (Species 8472)|Boothby]] had a passing [[cadet]] snap a shot of him and the commander. Months later, The Doctor modified the [[resonance spectrum]] of his holo-imager to scan his subjects down to the subatomic level. This allowed him to render {{USS|Voyager}} crew members as [[hologram]]s in full anatomical detail, which he employed as part of his annual check-up. Later that year, [[Lieutenant junior grade|Lieutenant]] [[B'Elanna Torres]] destroyed The Doctor's holo-imager when he was taking pictures in [[engineering]]. She had asked him three times to leave, however The Doctor kept "''buzzing around, snapping pictures''" for a photo essay entitled "A Day in the Life of the [[warp core|Warp Core]]". On [[April|April 22]], The Doctor had the [[senior officer]]s of the {{USS|Voyager}} pose for a group photo on [[Ancestors Eve]]. ({{VOY|Drone|In the Flesh|Latent Image|Juggernaut|11:59}})
 
 
In [[2376]], The Doctor again showed his propensity for [[holophotography]] when, in a visit to the [[Alpha Quadrant]], he took pictures of [[Lewis Zimmerman]]'s laboratory. Later, Lieutenant [[Reginald Barclay]] took a picture of the [[Emergency Medical Hologram|EMH]] and his creator. ({{VOY|Life Line}})
 
 
In [[2378]], Lieutenant [[Tom Paris]] jokingly stated that he should have brought a holo-imager to [[Uxal]] to show his wife that she wasn't missing anything. ({{VOY|Friendship One}})

A holographic imager is a small hand-held device used for capturing the image of a person or thing for the purpose of recreating the object in a holosuite.

In 2371, Quark used a holographic imager in an attempt to create a custom program of Kira Nerys for Tiron. Kira discovered the attempt and sabotaged the program. (DS9: "Meridian")
