with Filtering Enabled on which I'm guessing you're using, as you haven't stated otherwise. You want to use a remote function in ReplicatedStorage

This is the Server script.

01local this = script.Parent.Parent.detector
02local db = false
03local remoteEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):FindFirstChild("RemoteEvent")
04--[[ 
05ReplicatedStorage is the gateway between the client and the server, it's where
06 
07you want to store your remote events 
08--]]
09 
10this.Touched:connect(function(hit)
11 
12        if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil then
13        local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
14        remoteEvent:FireClient(player,this.Parent.Parent.camparts.cam1.CFrame,this.Parent.Parent.camparts.cam1)
15        --[[ 
16        Get the player from the character, then fire the remote event, you need the player
17 
18        so that the remoteEvent knows which player triggered the event.
19        --]]
20    end

Local Script

You can put this in the StarterGui

01script.Parent.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, positioning, subject)
02 
03    local char = hit.Parent
04    local plr = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
05    local cam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
06    cam.CFrame = positioning
07    cam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
08    cam.CameraSubject = subject
09 
10end)
