The opportunity cost is the camera, it was the next best thing.  His trade-off was the video games.  An opportunity cost is the next best thing in line.  A trade-off is the option eliminated first, there can be many trade-offs but only 1 opportunity cost.

The opportunity cost was the camera, as it was the next best thing in his decision. The trade-off was the video games, as it was the first thing eliminated in his decision. There can be many trade-offs in a decision but only one opportunity cost, as trade-offs are everything eliminated and opportunity costs is the option that is not chosen out of the last two choices.

Hope this helps :)
