This text belongs to directive. This text is usually found in the movie theatre and the factory. After we read the text we may just translate this to not bringing camera, but the real meaning of this text is to forbid us to don’t take the picture in that area. There is no word in the text which is showing the reader to don’t take a picture but we know what the intended meaning. We can know this by the crossed-picture.

“NO CAMERA”
This text belongs to directive. It is usually found in the movie theatres/cinemas and the factories. After we read it we may just translate it to not bringing your camera, but the what it really means is that we can't take pictures in that area real meaning of this text is to forbid us to don’t take the picture in that area. There is no word in the text which shows the reader to not don’t take a pictures, but we understand know what the intended meaning. We can know this because of the cross.NOTES:
1. You don't need to repeat 'text,' it sounds better to use 'it' as the subject instead. I also think that 'sign' would be a better word to use than 'text.'
2. Because you're making a generalisation, you don't need to use 'the': It is usually found in cinemas // You see the text in cinemas.
3. 'To don't' is not grammatically correct. You need to say 'to not' instead.
Well done!
