"Get the Photograph Emote in FF XIV's Patch 7.18"

One of the most engaging elements of social interaction in *Final Fantasy XIV* is the diverse range of character emotes that players can utilize to enhance their communication with others. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to obtain the Photograph emote in *Final Fantasy XIV*.

How To Unlock the Photograph Emote (Patch 7.18) in Final Fantasy XIV

As a result of an exciting collaboration with Fujifilm’s Instax, the otherwise modest Patch 7.18 for *Final Fantasy XIV* has introduced a delightful new emote, available to all players at no cost. The "Photograph" emote adds a fun and unique touch, enabling players to mimic taking photographs throughout Eorzea.

Unlike many other emotes in the game, which are often locked behind quests (like the quirky "Pose of the Unbound" emote) or require payment, the "Photograph" emote becomes instantly available in your Emote menu upon logging in after updating to the latest patch.

Ensure you download Patch 7.18, and the emote will be ready for you to use without any level or expansion purchase prerequisites.

How To Use the Photograph Emote in FFXIV

To activate the Photograph emote, navigate to your Emote menu under the "Social" tab and locate it near the bottom of the "General" tab list. Select it, and your character will simulate taking a photo with a Fujifilm-style camera. For frequent use, consider adding it to your Favorites.

Although the Photograph emote isn't designed for continuous use or suitable for "AFK" scenarios, it's versatile enough for various settings. You can use it underwater, such as in the Ruby Sea, or while mounted, whether on the ground or in the air.

It's perfect for creating intriguing, *Inception*-like pose moments with your characters. Patch 7.18 is the final update before the substantial Patch 7.2, set to launch in late March, bringing new dungeons, a revisit to the Arcadion, Cosmic Exploration, and more.
