3 websites I found which give this definition of 相机/相機
http://www.chinese-tools.com/tools/dictionary.html
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english-chinese-simplified/camera
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E7%9B%B8%E6%A9%9F#Chinese
However, I originally found the definition in my Chinese Textbook "Chinese Made Easy 3" 3rd. ed. by Yamin Ma and Xinying Li
Hong Kong: Joint Publishing Logistics, 2015. pg.127

Editor: Thanks, but we have "abbr. for 照相机" in our definition already. In other words, our definition already says 相机 can mean "camera".

By the way, your first reference doesn't define 相机 as "camera". Its definition is "watch for right time for action". And the second reference is a definition of "camera", not a definition of 相机; and their definition of "camera" is 照相机, not 相机.
Diff:
# - 相機 相机 [xiang4 ji1] /at the opportune moment/as the circumstances allow/abbr. for 照相機|照相机[zhao4 xiang4 ji1]/
# + 相機 相机 [xiang4 ji1] /camera/at the opportune moment/as the circumstances allow/abbr. for 照相機|照相机[zhao4 xiang4 ji1]/
