Shooter clocked in outskirts of Riga (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

camera

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'shooter' is the definition.
(a camera shoots footage)

'clocked in outskirts of riga' is the wordplay.
'clocked in' becomes 'came' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'outskirts of' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters).
'riga' with its centre removed is 'ra'.
'came'+'ra'='CAMERA'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for camera that I've seen before include "Nullify" , "An image-capturing device" , "In - means in private" , "Picture taker" , "One never lies" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
