    So, we all know the camera can tag people and animals, showing you where they are and what danger they pose. But it seems to have several other functions, some of which I cannot figure out. The again, I am not that far along, so maybe this is explained. But if not, I hope someone has figure it out.

    One thing I got quite early was the fact that you can use it to find collectables and tag a waypoint to them. This works best if you are high up, as the collectables appear in your view as flashing lights. Just snap a picture of a light, and you will get a waypoint to it. I also think this puts it on you map.

    But just now I saw something new, when the UI of the camera turned orange. It also "zoomed" in a bit, like camera UIs often do when indicating things are in focus. What does this mean? Anyone know?

    Can it put you in third-person view? No? Aww.

    You can't take screenshots with the camera... makes me very angry at the camera.
