Cameras do not refract light, lenses do. Refraction occurs whenever light passes from one medium to another, so it is not something that only occurs with lenses.

Does a camera use reflection or refraction?

A camera primarily uses refraction to focus light onto the sensor/film. Lenses in the camera refract light to create a sharp image, adjusting focus by changing the distance between the lens elements. Reflection may occur within the camera, such as off mirrors or other internal components, but it is not the primary mechanism for forming the image.
