So different fluids have different refractive indices...what

You'd just get a hazy image if you had a liquid filled body, sensors/film don't exactly work with liquid beating against it.
Now hypothetically if you could put some sort of transparent gel or suspended liquid in your camera body, you'd get a Petra Collins aesthetic at best and nothing coherent at worst

Hell if you want to try this out get a fully manual film camera(no batteries), and take some photos with your body full of water, you'll ruin the body and lens and learn that it's not feasible but at least it'll be a fun science experiment

Liquid lenses to solve optical problems

Black holes can also be used as lenses due to the way they warp space

It might work. There has been research on using liquid elements that react to electric fields as focusing elements. They would allow a much faster and quieter focus. The problem is of course containment.

If you filled your entire camera up with water and still managed to focus it properly, then you will have a shit picture with shit contrast because water isn't exactly clear as air. If I am not wrong if you focus on infinity then fill the shit up with water you'd be focusing past infinity because water is optically denser than glass.

In the end you would have accomplished nothing much.

Glass as an amorphous solid is actually an overcooled liquid.
Lenses used liquids refractivity since the beginning. This thread is stupid.

This is already done in lab environments to push the f-stop of photolithography lenses to f/0.5, the whole thing is submerged in a special liquid.

Well, depending on the application, you could get more resolution.

fuck off with this garbage meme

Go the fuck back to school children

You can get the "My camera is broken and wet" effect.

Not photography related but it reminded me of this:

Finish a damn school first you dumbfuck artfags! Literally first year material science in any remotely engineering schools, high school and college.
It has no time to crystallize into a crystalline order so it solidifies as amorphous hence "overcooled" same thing happens to water when you cool it down. Actually you need extreme pressure to turn water into cubic crystalline form. Read some books!
