A legionary would be paid in metal coins (denarii). From each soldier's pay there was deducted the cost of the food issued to that soldier, panis sordis, "dirty [brown] bread" (the kind for anyone who was not rich). There was also a pay deduction for the cost of weapons, armor and other equipment the soldier was issued, and also another pay deduction for what each soldier was issued to drink. This tended to be a weak alcohol, since it took longer to go bad and it was good for disinfecting things. Total pay BEFORE deductions would vary based on rank. Each private in a legion would get about 20 denarii each month, or, before Julius Caesar increased the pay, it used to be half that. On the other hand, if you were one of the centurions -- officers who commanded 100 soldiers each -- then you would get 300 denarii each month. If you were an enlisted man in a legion of the Praetorian Guard, in charge of guarding the Emperor, and his residence {palatium) in Rome, and the other very important people, then you would get 60 denarii each month. The higher pay was to discourage traitors among the Praetorian Guard, but this did not really work very well. In the first century A. D., a middle-class civilian secretary would get about 15 denarii each month. If you wanted to buy a tunic to wear, it would cost a little less than 4 denarii. If you wanted to buy a cheap slave, the slave would cost about 500 denarii.
Marius, who created a professional army, paid the legionaries 225 denarii a year. Domitian increased this to 300 denarri and Septimius Severus to 500 denarii. The cost of food and clothing was deducted from this pay.

Roman senators did not get paid anything.

The legionaries were partly paid in grain which they would make into bread, that being the staple. Of course this was supplemented by foods gathered locally and flavoured with the ubiquitous liquamen (fish sauce).

Camulodunum was never a legionary fortress, it was a colonia. A colonia was a place where discharged Roman soldiers settled and perhaps were given some land to cultivate and earn a living. Camulodunum, was however the principal site in Roman Britain until the Boudiccan revolt of 60/61 AD. Following that, London became the admistrative centre in Britain. Only Deva, Eburacum and Isca (Augusta/Silurum) were legionary fortresses in Britain during the Roman rule.
