Coopers' Camera is a 2008 Canadian comedy film, directed by Warren P. Sonoda. The film centres on the Coopers, a dysfunctional family who are recording their family Christmas in 1985 on their new video camera, only for the holiday to descend into chaos.

The film stars Jason Jones and Samantha Bee as Gord and Nancy Cooper, Peter Keleghan as Gord's brother Tim and Mike Beaver as Uncle Nick, as well as Boyd Banks, Jennifer Baxter, Dave Foley, Jayne Eastwood, Dylan Everett, Gage Munroe and Rob Tinkler in supporting roles.

The film was shot in Toronto in early 2008, while Jones and Bee were on hiatus from The Daily Show.

The film premiered at the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival.
