I encountered a bug after funishing the quest, I couldnt remove the camera from my inventory --DannyK92 13:52, October 25, 2010 (UTC)

I believe the camera can't be removed since it's a quest item. Thecrystalcrow 11:03, October 26, 2010 (UTC)

I know it's a quest item, but why whould i need it after the quest? How do I remove it? --DannyK92 19:01, October 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * I wrote back awhile ago, but I guess it didn't stick. Some quest items stay with you forever, like the Ink bottle or the slave collar in FO3. Have you tried to sell, store, or drop the camera? Or all three? Thecrystalcrow 02:32, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

5000 Caps, Please...
When I completed this quest, I received 5000 caps, not 500, as did other people that change the reward edit back to 5000. Are the folks that are getting 500 submitting their pictures to Michael Angelo one at a time, or all at once, and what platform are you using? I submitted them all at once, and am playing on the PS3.

I received 500 caps and 200XP at the end of this quest (Level 26 on PC). I turned in each picture individually and received 150 caps for each picture. The XP changed for each picture, however: 110, then 125, 150, 175, and finally 200 for taking the last picture.72.47.110.200 01:12, January 22, 2011 (UTC) GullyF


 * The reward may be level-based, in that case. I completed this one around level 10. When others posted the 500 cap reward, I reloaded the save I had prior to completion, and ran the quest again, and again received 5000 caps. I haven't done the quest with any of my other characters yet-will have to keep it in mind. Thecrystalcrow 01:37, January 22, 2011 (UTC)

Medicine Requirement
Why is there no mention of the medicine skill requirement needed to start the quest? --Wck604 00:19, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Probably because no one that edited the page ran into it or was aware of it. Why don't you put it in? Thecrystalcrow 00:18, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've reloaded many times and tried to give all different answers, and I can't find a way to start the question without passing the medicine test. I'll put it in. --Wck604 00:21, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Looks good-I had no idea that there was a medicine requirement to start it, since both my Speech and Medicine were sufficient, it didn't register with me that you HAD to have one or the other. Thecrystalcrow 00:29, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

Oops... nevermind. You need to do the medicine check to start the quest, but you don't need to pass it. Even if you fail it, the quest still starts. i guess the check is just for an XP bonus. --Wck604 00:31, November 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Consider it neverminded :) Thecrystalcrow 00:37, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

film used
"The camera is based on the Kodak's Brownie Hawkeye Flash model and uses 120 film, which should have 12 shots per roll, but the the icon in Pipboy is a 135 film, and has 24 shots"the model basis is under debate on the codac r9000 page (it's likely something similar to a duaflex). in any case, both of those cameras, and any other it's likely to have been based on, use 620 roll fill. 620 and 120 are physically the same size film, with different sized reels. most people still using 620 cameras today buy 120 film, and re-spool it (in a darkroom) onto 120 reels. however, there's no particular reason you couldn't use 220 film. 620/120 film uses a paper liner behind the film. on old brownies, this paper would show exposure numbers though the little red windows in the back of the camera. 220 film lacks this paper backing, and results in double the number of exposure compared to 620/120, with the same roll thickness. ie: 24 exposures on a 6x6 camera. however, in a camera built for 620/120 film, as the codac r9000 is (see the red windows on the back), this would result in two things very bad for pictures: fogged/exposed film, unless the windows were taped over, and potentially out of focus pictures because the film is essentially a different thickness.

is this what michael angelo has done? maybe, maybe not. if he's re-spooling the film anyways, from 220, why not just add the paper backing, and get better pictures? since you never see the pictures, it's hard to say. in any case, the icon showing 135 ("35mm") film is definitely a mistake. also, curiously, when you drop the film, its game model is that of a conductor. 98.254.110.65 05:51, December 26, 2010 (UTC)

Can I view the pictures I've taken?
And if so, how? In case it matters, I'm using the XBox 360. Thanks. 68.196.8.50 19:29, July 3, 2011 (UTC)
