Thanks to their wings, Shutterbugs are capable of flight. Upon their destruction, they release an Animal.

While their picture-taking skills are nice, it is not enough for the player, as a simple Spin Jump will defeat these Badniks. In gameplay, they simply glide around the playable characters in midair (similar to the Whisps in Sonic the Hedgehog 2) and will take pictures of them. In Sonic Mania, and its expansion Sonic Mania Plus, the Shutterbugs appear in both Acts of Studiopolis Zone. They also have a giant camera lens on their mouths, a pair of blue eyes, and a large round flash on their foreheads that they use to flash brightly at their opponents. They are mainly navy blue with a pair of light blue wings and four light blue legs each.

The Shutterbugs are fly-based Badniks whose bodies are designed after a camera.
