Does this sentence make sense?

"Arturo tuvo dificultad con la cámara y le lo fue muy cómico para Raquel."

Raquel did not find Arturo funny, but found how he was having difficult using the camera funny.

'le lo' is never said in Spanish. The indirect object pronoun is changed to 'se' when both of the third-person object pronouns are used.

Your sentence isn't quite right. Reword it as 'Arthur had difficulties with the camera, which thing (lo cual) was very funny to Raquel.' Instead of 'was funny to someone', use 'turned out to be funny to someone' - really big hint: resultarle muy cómico a alguien). Give it another try.

Thank you! Especially for the very big hint!

Another big hint: you need to conjugate 'resultarle'.

'de él y de Raquel'
'dificultad'
