Photo-Taking Mode
After confirming the Kamera settings, you’ll enter the Photo-Taking Mode. Here, you must follow the rest of the photography prompts you’re able to reference on the lefthand corner. In the example above, the prompt was to include a character and use an Anemo Elemental Skill. So we switched to Kazuha, used his Elemental Skill, andimmediately snapped a photowith the Kamera Gadgetwhile the Skill was still active. Likewise, other prompts will ask you to have the subject perform other actions, such as sprinting or doing their idle animations—you must snap the photo while these actions are still active.
Once the photo has been taken, you can keep taking photos if you missed some prompts, want to redo the shot, or leave when you’re satisfied. Don’t forget to claim rewards from the photo prompts section of the event menu.
