Many a tourist will use it snappily (6)
I believe the answer is:
camera
'it snappily' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for camera that I've seen before include "Taker of pictures" , "optical device" , "Brownie maybe" , "Picture taker" , "shooter" .)
