"Have you seen my camera?"

Translation: 你看见我的照相机了吗？

[Trixy-la-Louve]

Is something wrong with 你看见了我的照相机吗? There are sentences where not having 了after 看见 is marked as wrong, but here, the opposite happens.

[Bill496592]

We had exercises that distinguishes two different past tenses. If it is past simple (Did you...), it is correct to use 了in that way.
For "Have you..." (Past perfect) we would use 你看见我的照相机了吗。
But honestly i dont know why none of above usage for 了 is used in here.

Same with me, it seems natural that the 了 should be there. But I don't know if that right.

I thought the same thing, but I guess it is often better to put 了 after the object. 你吃饭了吗？I'm not sure how you would decide though.

照相机和相机是一样的吧

[crush]

是的，相机是照相机的缩写，现在应该也会接受照相机。

[Rohonada]

Wow! I wish i knew what you just said!

[DaveLommen]

I tend to agree, but actually, as you are at this level, if you put in the effort to look at the characters one by one, you will probably get it.

可以说 “你见了我的照相机吗？” 吗？

[AndriesKir]

Why is there nothing in the sentence to indicate that the action of seeing happened in the past? Would "你看见了我的照相机吗" also be acceptable?

[PetulantVi]

why is "你看见我的照相机了吗" wrong?

It was accepted May 1st, 2019.

[Iwilleatyouall]

But not 你看见了我的照相机吗.

[Zee674529]

你看见我的照相机了吗 - Their answer. Exactly the same as what you have written. So it cannot be wrong I suppose

[JessicaPer136520]

This was the given response in the previous lesson too so you should flag it next time you encounter it

[Lodus2]

相機 should be accepted for camera. It is accepted in other questions and is more widely used that 照相機 among the native speakers I know.
