ESO Picture/Capture Mode

Does anyone else wish that ESO had a picture/capture mode built in?

This may not be an issue on PC, but on console there's no way to remove every element of the HUD. If memory serves me correctly, the compass up top and cursor will always be visible. Most other MMO's I've seen, and even some shooters that have a high amount of customization, have had some way to take clean screenshots of our characters or group shots. Usually you have the option to free-cam around your character to position your view how you'd like, and can either freeze the game (posed shots) or keep the game running to do emotes.

As much as I would LOVE for ZOS to fix all the current bugs and glitches in the game, most companies seem to feel they make more money by pushing out new content rather than fixing old content. With that in mind, this is something I would love to see, especially after they add transmog to the game.

Edit: for horrible spelling.

    In addition, this would be a great leeway to introduce customizable paintings. Currently, the concern is that people would put up inappropriate pictures – but if the source was in-game screenshots there would be no such issue.

    I would love it if ESO had a camera mode. I could finally send some pics to massivelyop's "One Shot" column. ESO is a beautiful game, why not show it off?

    On PC there's a keybinding you can set to turn the UI off.

    Not sure if it exists for console. On PC it's turned off by default, so you'll need to set the keybind manually every time you create a new character.

    I've been using it to take pictures of clockwork city on the PTS.

    I was thinking at that when I set up a painting on a tripod in front of my garden. Also I'll love to fill my house with painting done in a picture mode.
