I did this morning and it was just about to change to red but was still yellow by the time I went through, can I expect a ticket? The light did definitely have a camera.

the red light camera is triggered by a sensor at the stop line,this sensor turns on when the light goes red,if you are moving across that sensor it will record your speed then take two pictures ,one as you cross the line and one right after to see if you went thru,this way if you are trying to stop and slide over the line but not go thru the intersection then they wont ticket you

I do amateur photography. My camera has the ability to take pictures with or without flash. Flash is used in night time conditions, dim light conditions, or if you want to illuminate the subject. The traffic camera can take pictures with or without flash. In my experience, they are automated cops. They are programmed to take pictures when they red light turns on.
If you received a ticket in the mail, then you have one. First traffic cameras installed in the Bay Area are in San Francisco. They are experimental before. Now they are everywhere in the Bay Area Cities and some parts of California

I don't know about the UK, but the law in the US is if the light turns red before your front tires cross the line (or parallel to the stop sign if no painted line is there), you have run the light.
Doesn't sound like you should get one to me.

You most likely will get a ticket in the mail, telling you where you were at and what time the incident occured.

You may just about get away with it, as long as it was not ON red.
