The first sentence in the article claims: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Length_contraction Length contraction is the phenomenon of a decrease in length of an object as measured by an observer who is traveling at any non-zero velocity relative to the object. As I understand, If I move relative to my friend and have a photo camera and I will make a picture of my friend, he will appear contracted. He will appear of the same height, but will appear “very slim”, is it correct? But if my friend will take picture, he will see that I am contracted. Is it correct? But, doesn't a film in a camera Lorentz contract? If the film contracts, my friend will appear stretched. I will appear stretched too. How come? If my friend holds two Einstein - synchronized clocks in left and right hands - will they show the same time on the picture?
