<p>In the anime adaptation of <em>Monogatari</em> series, it's come to my attention that you often hear camera flash sounds when the character that narrates the arc blink. We first set a quick view of a specific spot (probably what the character is focused on) and then see the character's eyes blink with the sound of a camera flash.</p>
<p>The only theory I have so far is that things are going as they planned or they see an opportunity, but also it's possible that it happens because they're assimilating some information for later.</p>
<p>This question has really bugged me for a while and I haven't seen anyone else ask so I would love to hear from people.</p>

This question has really bugged me for a while and I haven't seen anyone else ask so I would love to hear from people.
