How To Use Photo Mode In Sniper Elite: Resistance

Here you can tilt the camera to the right or the left, holding the camera sideways and allowing you to create a ‘Dutch Angle’. This can lead to some very creative compositions, and even a very slight adjustment can add to or retract a photo significantly.

This hides the player character from view.

This hides all enemy characters from view.

Only present in multiplayer modes, this hides other player characters from view.

This hides all friendly non-player characters from view.

This toggles between seven different options that change the color filter of the photo, including the default color balance. This can give your photo a black-and-white effect, make it sepia-toned, and more.

This changes how prevalent the Filter you selected in the last option will be if you selected one at all. For example, if you selected black-and-white and have the filter at 50% intensity, this will simply wash the colors out by a bit.

This adds a film grain over your photo, giving the impression of a picture taken on real film. You can change the intensity of this as well, keeping it minimal or pushing it to the maximum, adding quite a bit of texture to the photo.

This changes the brightness of the photo, essentially changing the brightness setting of your game, but only while in Photo Mode.

This changes the color contrast of your photo. This will deepen every color on the screen, making everything more vivid. However, this will also have the side effect of severely darkening a photo taken in a dark environment if pushed too far.

This gives your camera a focus, which will ensure anything inside the focus range is clear, and things outside the focus range, either too close or too far, become blurred. This can help you to ensure the focus of a photo is on a certain person or object without needing to frame the photo so that the environment is left out entirely.

This sets the distance at which your camera focuses. For example, if the Focal Distance is set to 200 mm, then everything in the photo at that distance is going to be clear, while everything else will be blurred. This will only be available if ‘Depth Of Field’ is toggled On.

This sets the strength of the blurring effect to everything outside the ‘Focal Distance.’ A lower setting creates a stronger blurring effect, while a higher setting makes it much less noticeable. Like ‘Focal Distance’, this setting is only available if ‘Depth Of Field’ is toggled On.

This is unrelated to the ‘Depth Of Field’ settings and changes the FOV of the camera itself. This can range from an FOV of 10 degrees, which is extremely narrow, to 130 degrees, which is extremely wide. This can go a long way in framing your photo exactly how you’d like it to be framed and will often be tinkered with while you’re still moving your camera around.

This will add one of six frames over your photo. These can range from making it look like your photo is through the lens of a sniper scope to a physical photo on a manilla folder, the front page of a French newspaper, and more.

This can add some texture to your photo, giving it more of the impression of a physical thing, aside from the ‘Film Grain’ effect in the ‘Filters’ tab. These can range from cracked glass or blood splatters at the corners to a darkened, warping effect of a photo that’s poorly developed or damaged.

This will darken the top and bottom of the photo, pushing more of the emphasis towards the center.

This will add a logo to the screen. There are multiple different positions that the logo can be, and each option changes the position until it’s large and in the very center of the photo.
