Nancy Drew: Danger By Design Hints
How does the camera work?
1 of 3: The camera you can borrow from Dieter (on the table next to the door to the darkroom) is pretty cool, but not as helpful as it might seem, since he'll make you give it back before the end of the game. But it's helpful enough in the meantime.
2 of 3: To use the camera, click on it in inventory, then click on the large square button in the upper right. You'll now be looking at whatever scene you're in, but with a white square in it. Move the square till you've framed the picture you want, then click. You can take ten pictures this way and scroll through them with the up and down arrows on the camera.
3 of 3: If you still don't understand, there's a section in the game's intro (in Nancy's Room) on using the camera. Click on "How to Be a Detective" and "Camera."
