Monster Hunter Wilds - Photo Mode Guide

Photo Mode lets you take the best shots of your hunts in Monster Hunter Wilds! See how to take a photo, all the Photo Mode tips and features here.

How to Take a Photo

Select ‘Photo Mode’ in the Start Menu

Start Menu

Head to the Start Menu and look for the icon with a Camera. This should open Photo Mode.

All Photo Mode Features

Camera View

Camera View allows you to zoom in and out so you would have a control over how much the camera covers.

Camera Rotation

You can tilt the camera to the left or right using the Camera Rotation.

Depth of Focus

Depth of Field gives you reigns over which part of the photo should be sharpened and blurred.

Essentially, if the Depth of Field is low, only the objects in front would be sharpened while the rest are blurred. Raise it higher so the objects in the middle or even at the back would be sharped, while the ones in front are blurred

Other Features

The Camera features don't stop there! There is still Depth of Field, and Focal Ratio. Both of these features can be explored in the game.

Photo Mode Tips

How to Pause Quests
