His camera captured dodgy deal (4)
I believe the answer is:
scam
'dodgy deal' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'his camera captured' is the wordplay.
'captured' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'SCAM' is hidden within 'his camera'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for scam that I've seen before include "Screw" , "Fraud, dishonest scheme" , "fiddle" , "Fraudulent scheme, swindle" , "Rip-off" .)
