I have an older model iMac (2011) running High Sierra 10.13.6-- the internal built in Camera is not being detected- I have run the hardware troubleshooting and NO camera is detected. Obviously there IS a camera- but the machine for some reason is not recognizing it.
iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.13
Had you attempted an SMC reset to see if that helps?

Some of these make a difference & restore function.
..Also NVRAM-or-PRAM reset may help too..
