Light itself is invisible
Like all kinds of electromagnetic radiation. However, in the case of light, we can see the effect this particular kind of radiation has on materials and surfaces (reflections for example). And "seeing" is the brain's translation of what happens to our retina when light enters. The literal meaning of "photography", an artificial term just 200 years old, is "writing with light". We don't. We can't even see light. Our camera is rather a tool to organise and influence our brains' translations of the impact of light. Photographers are translators, not creators in a strict sense. However, there are good and bad translations. Sony A7iii, Pentacon 3.5/30.
