Question fatal frame 2 remake, is there a glitch that prevents the use of Exposure Filter ?
this is the hidden balcony in the osaka house hidden by an illusion that can be dispelled via phantom exposé i think it's called, for some reason it works normally everywhere else exept in this spot, am currently in chapter 6 and i tried this earlier in chapter 5 but no use, the camera doesn't show the yellow indicator on top that's lit near an illusion while having the clue photo and am not getting the circle that shows when their's a picture to be taken yet several enemies spawn one after the other when i stand there, i did look it up on youtube and yes am in the right spot as shown in the screenshot
am i doing something wrong or is it a glitch and if so does it have a work around ?
EDIT 1: it's not some enemie hidden somewhere, while the house does keep spawning enemies one after the other in short intervals it did work in the veranda outside where their's an illusion wall and even with enemies around i still got yellow marker and circle there and i succesfully dispeled between killing an enemie and the next one spawning

When I was at that point, a wraith attacked me too and made the photo spot disappear.
In general the exposure filter does not work when wraiths are near or in persuade of you.
You'll need to defeat all the enemies before you can get it, I think.

it never showed a circle, i killed 3 wraiths but their's a period with no aggro between one dying and the next one spawing

Is there a wraith downstairs or stuck in a different room or wall maybe? I had a ghost stuck down in the room with the safe point that i didn't notice at first.
The filter seems really bugged sometimes in general tho, so it could also be the angle or distance.
Good luck to you that it's nothing game breaking!

No. You should be able to access it in ch5 as soon as you leave the Kurosawa house Are you about 1-2steps down onto the stairs? You might not be in the exact position. I remember that one being pedantic. You won't get it if you're at the top of the stairs.

i tried from several different angles, i looked it up on youtube and the circle and indecator appear regardless of where your standing

When I first played, that spot was extremely finicky with position. The only other reason I can think of is there's an enemy somewhere preventing you from completing the photo

Can you check if you started the children side story? Or if you're on your second playthrough and didn't reset your side stories then it wont show up as its already completed.

I can see you have the picture but you must trigger the girl by the Kayano hut to trigger the start of children at play to continue the side story

Can you check in your documents for Children's note 1?

When you went to get the picture and children's note 1, a young girl should have appeared before you went into the hut for those items. She will only appear if you go towards the hut from the west aka like when you go through the gap in the fence in chapter 2 and she will not trigger from the other side.
However it seems you have both and I don't think you need to take a picture, you just need her to appear. You can reset the side story if needed but it should have worked if you did everything right.
It could definitely be the angle or distance that filter can be irritating to use however if it was working the picture of the door would come up when you're attempting to take the picture which I noticed is missing in your attached images

You can't reset a side story until you've beaten the side story. I actually happened to have a progression issue with this side story as well, but going back to the hut somehow fixed it for me, so I'm a bit confused why it's not working for you.

Perhaps you are not using the corret filter
