Body Cam → Body Cam (film) – Primary topic would more likely be a police bodycam, not this film per WP:NCF. Body Cam can then be redirected to Body camera.   Kadzi   (talk) 12:53, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. The capitalisation difference between "Body Cam" (film) and "body cam" (actual camera) is enough to distinguish them. JIP | Talk 13:45, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
Support per nom. Capitalisation is a terrible disambiguator. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:17, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
Oppose per WP:OVERPRECISION and WP:DIFFCAPS. Anyone taking the trouble to specifically capitalize the C most likely wants the film. Body cam already redirects to body camera. Note also that the film gets over 8 times the pageviews of the body camera article and over 100 times the views of the body cam redirect. Station1 (talk) 15:46, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguate – what about creating a disambiguation page at the capitalized "Body Cam", and let users decide where they want to go. Paintspot Infez (talk) 23:08, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
We already know that 78%-99% want to go to the film, and the rest can click on the hatnote as easily as they could on a dab page. Station1 (talk) 02:19, 14 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
Support per nom. I can easily imagine people thinking "Body Cam" is a proper noun or even a brand name for a particular kind of worn camera or police gear. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 03:49, 20 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
