Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1HeimerdingerCamille has no waveclear and no answer to your turret at level 1 — she just farms while you set the freeze.
Level 2HeimerdingerA second H-28G plus its slowing electron beam wall off your half of lane; she eats chip for every last-hit she reaches.
Level 3Even / skillFull kit is online but her level-3 E hookshot is a real dive threat — keep the center-stun saved and don't over-extend past the nest.
Levels 4-5Even / skillThree banked turret charges and the CH-3X center-stun make her E all-in even money — stun the dash and the turrets answer, but a missed grenade flips it.
Level 6CamilleThe Hextech Ultimatum rings you off from your nest into an isolated 1v1 — immobile and squishy, you lose the clean duel to her W heal and Q true damage.
First itemEven / skillAt two items her empowered Q and W cut through the buildings and her R isolation kills you outright — the lane is hers to take over.
Two+ itemsHeimerdingerStay grouped and hold chokes where the turret wall and grenade can fire — never let her catch you alone in a side lane to R-isolate you.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Camille has to come to you, and pre-6 she has no waveclear and no real answer to a banked nest. Get a second H-28G turret down by level 2 and freeze on your side — the slowing electron beam means she eats chip for every CS she reaches. Do not waste the CH-3X grenade on poke; it is your only hard CC, and you need its center-stun saved for the instant she commits her E hookshot. If she walks in without E up, beam-slow her and W-rocket her off — she cannot trade into three turrets bare.
