That is a South China Sea Mission, so the file is "Photo South China Sea 03". The mis file for that does not have any ships set as a photo_target, so you have to find something within the 12km Zone that defines the photo area. That basically covers the point and a little bit of the water area... Not much. So you've got maybe 1/2 of the mouth of the harbor on the south side, and all in the shallows. Photo Value is 20, threshold is 0 (zero) though, so one picture of most anything with a RenownAwarded of 200 or higher should work, or maybe 10 pictures of a fishing boat? But there has to be something within the zone to take a picture of, for the light to light-up. Another thing though - the light does not light unless you lock the target, and hover your mouse over the camera button... Don't forget to have them smile!

the light just went on in my head. probably from too many hits.

i am used to other mods where the camera icon lights up once you are in range and lock on a target.

forgot to think that other mods do not do that and your statement turned on the light.
thank you. i knew it was something simple.

i wish i could figure out why SH4 refuses to assign the correct conning tower.
the date is somewhere during October 1942. Why does my boat still have the early war conning tower when it should have the mid war conning tower?

UnitParts6Sargo also shows that my boat should be using the midwar Conning tower.

i am at a loss as to why these things do not kick in on schedule.
