How to Use Photo Mode in The Last of Us 2

To use photo mode in The Last of Us 2, press the Options button and select ‘Photo Mode’ from the main menu. This will then give you the choice between Custom and Game camera modes. Game will let you capture the photo exactly as you paused it and saw it in-game. Custom allows you to freely move the camera around the action.

It’s also worth noting that if you dive into the ‘Options’ from the pause menu, you’ll be able to turn on a Photo Mode shortcut. This shortcut will allow you to press L3 + R3 at any time during the game to enter photo mode. This is really useful for getting the timing just right for the perfect snapshot.

On top of being able to move the camera around in The Last of Us 2, players can adjust the camera roll angle, field of view, and depth of field by adjusting the various options that can be accessed with L1, R1 and the d-pad.
