I am using a 16" MacBook Pro, 2019, and running Big Sur 11.5.2.
Recently my camera seemed to just disappear from the computer and I had to purchase one so I could work.
I have attempted the fixes that IO could find like resetting SMC, restarting, reinstalling, etc, but to no effect.
It is gone. Does anyone know how to get the camera back? Please help!
Thank you,
Dan

I thank you for this information and having now also reset NVRAM/PRAM, and my settings still showing that there is no camera, it is a hardware setting and I will attempt to set an appointment with Apple!
Thank you, this answered my question.
