Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a data transmission method, a camera and an electronic device. The method includes: acquiring to-be-sent target data; and sending the target data, as data carried in an effective image area of a first image frame, by using a data sending manner for the effective image area, through a same transmission channel as used in transmitting image data; wherein, the target data is different from the image data and coaxial data, the coaxial data is notification information for an interaction between a data receiving end and a data sending end, and the first image frame has a different type from a second image frame carrying the image data without carrying the target data. Applying the solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, the transmission of the target data can be realized without additional wiring, thereby reducing the device cost.
