How to start Camera Work in The Depths in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

Before beginning the Camera Work in The Depths quest in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you must have reached the point in Crisis At Hyrule Castle where both the Paraglider and Regional Phenomena quests are unlocked.

At this stage, Josha will run off to the area below where Purah is standing, which is also where Robbie can be found. Follow Josha to this spot and speak with her to initiate the Camera Work in The Depths quest.

Once you've finished speaking with Josha and Robbie, you’ll receive 10 Brightbloom Seeds and five Arrows. Brightbloom Seeds are extremely useful when exploring the chasms, because once fused to an arrow, you can shoot them onto a wall to light up some of the surrounding area.

Hyrule Field Chasm location in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

To complete the Camera Work in The Depths quest in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you need to visit the Hyrule Field Chasm. When you're ready, exit Lookout Landing from its southern exit and continue heading south until you arrive at the Hyrule Field Chasm, located near the Jiosin Shrine.

If this is your first time venturing into one of the chasms, we recommend gathering strong weapons—taking the time to fuse materials to them—and stocking up on arrows. The chasms are hazardous, so a well-equipped arsenal is essential.

It’s important to note that health functions differently in the chasms. While you can still heal by consuming food or elixirs in The Depths, if a heart becomes greyed out and damaged, you won’t be able to restore that portion of health. This occurs when you come into contact with Gloom—not the Pokémon, but red puddles of glop—either by stepping into one or being attacked by a Gloom-infected enemy.

If one of your hearts turns grey, it can be restored by returning to the surface, standing within the center of a Lightroot, or eating a meal made with Sundelions—a plant found on the sky islands—as an ingredient. Once the hearts return to normal, you'll need to eat a meal to recover your missing health.

How to unlock the Camera in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

To reach the depths of the Hyrule Field Chasm in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you need to descend into the chasm itself. Just make sure to deploy the Paraglider at the right moment or else Link will perish.

The first thing you need to do in The Depths is talk to Ponnick who is standing near a hot air balloon in a small patch of light. Ponnick will inform you that Robbie has ventured into The Depths, so you must follow him.

However, The Depths is a very dark place and you’ll need to use Brightbloom Seeds to illuminate your path. The easiest way to accomplish this is by fusing a Brightbloom Seed to an arrow and then shooting it at the floor, though, if you want to conserve arrows, you can always toss the seed directly.

For now, head toward the large glowing object directly west of Ponnick.

Upon arrival, stand beneath the Lightroot and examine the glowing green handprint. This action will cause part of the surrounding area to become illuminated, making your progress easier. It also adds portions of the surrounding terrain to your map of The Depths and allows fast travel back to this Lightroot. The Lightroot will also heal any damage sustained and restore any greyed-out hearts you might have.

Next, you need to head to the fire located west of your current position, but before leaving, read a note from Robbie on the table next to the fire.

Make sure to steer clear of the pools of gloom while traveling to the next fire—if you remain in a gloom pool too long, one of Link’s hearts will turn grey and this segment of your health will be locked. To restore it, you must either return to the surface, stand in the center of a Lightroot, or consume a meal containing Sundelions as an ingredient.

Once you reach the next fire, read the note left by Robbie to learn he has continued westward, and if you look to your left, another Lightroot will be visible in the distance.

Proceed toward this Lightroot using Brightbloom Seeds to light your way and avoid any gloom puddles. You may also encounter enemies along this route; if so, proceed cautiously. Enemies in The Depths often deal more damage than those on the surface, and some are infected with gloom, so exercise caution.

When you reach the Lightroot—the Layusus Lightroot precisely—stand beneath it and select examine to illuminate nearby areas and add more land to your map of The Depths. Afterward, you’ll locate Robbie nearby standing by a fire.

Talking to Robbie will unlock the Camera function, and to test it out, you must take a picture of the nearby statue for Josha. You might need to step back slightly to ensure the statue fits in the frame, but go ahead and snap the photo! You’ll know when you've captured it correctly, and Robbie will automatically respond.

Now it’s time to return to Lookout Landing where you’ll find Robbie and Josha inside the room beneath Purah’s house. Speak with Robbie to initiate a conversation that concludes the quest, and Josha will reward you with five Zonaites.

With that, Camera Work in The Depths comes to a close. If you'd like to explore more about Link’s adventure in Hyrule, check out our Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom walkthrough.
