How to take pictures of landmarks in Spider-Man 2

To take pictures of landmarks in Spider-Man 2, you have two options. You can either press up on the DualSense's d-pad to bring up the character camera, or press the Pause button to access Photo Mode.

Of course, each of these options have slightly different roles. The character camera is a lore-friendly in-universe version of the camera, with it technically being Peter or Miles' own device. Photo Mode is exactly what you'd expect from a triple-A game, giving you framing and camera options, as well as the ability to change poses.

If you're just after a nice and easy selfie with the New York skyline, or need to snap a specific landmark for an objective, the character camera should do the trick. On the other hand, Photo Mode is more suited to artsy photos that you really want to take your time configuring.

Whichever option you settle on, both are capable of taking pictures of landmarks in Spider-Man 2. That means you can snap your required images and bag some XP with ease!
