Having a dedicated photo mode is part of what makes modern-day video games so much fun. In most games, this is a feature that you can use right at the beginning of the game. In My Time At Sandrock, you have to first get the device in the game world before you can start taking photos. Getting the camera isn’t as simple as you might think it is, and taking pictures is a whole different beast entirely. To get started, you’ll want to head over to the Eufaula Salvage Abandoned Ruins.
How To Get The Camera In My Time At Sandrock
Once you get to the Eufala Salva Abandoned Ruins, you’ll be able to start mining for different resources. Three of these resources are the ones you need to create the camera. That said, follow these instructions to get the camera in My Time At Sandrock:
- Collect the camera pieces.
In the mine, you will need to press F on your keyboard to survey the area for resources hidden in the rubble. It will take a few tries, but you need to find Camera Piece 1, Camera Piece 2, and Camera Piece 3.
- Create the camera at the Museum.
Once you have all three pieces, you can assemble the camera at the Museum.
- Put the Camera in your hotbar and select it.
Once you select the Camera, you’ll unlock the Camera function.
- Take photos whenever you want!
You can do this by pressing Tab on your keyboard, LB on your
Xbox controller, L1 on your PlayStation controller, or L on your Nintendo controller.
While it’s absolutely possible that we just had bad luck, it took us several dives into the Abandoned Ruins before finally coming out with the pieces we needed. If you note the image above, we reached Level 19 purely through the experience gained going through the Abandoned Ruins, so you’ll definitely want to carve out some time to do this.
