In {{MM}}, the Pictograph Box is a sepia-toned camera which Link obtains from the [[Swamp Tourist Center]] after rescuing [[Koume]] from the [[Woods of Mystery]]. It can hold only one pictograph at a time.<ref>{{Cite Web|quote= The Pictograph Box is an advanced piece of Terminan technology.

In {{MM3D}}, the Pictograph Box now takes pictographs in full color, as well as in 3D if the feature is enabled on the [[Nintendo 3DS]].

In {{TWW}}, the Picto Box is found inside a [[Treasure Chest]] hidden in the crawlspace maze inside [[Windfall Island]]'s {{Term|TWWHD|Jail Maze|link}}. It allows Link to take and store up to three black and white Pictographs at a time. While in use, the Control Stick aims the viewfinder, while zooming in and out is performed with the C-Stick, similarly to the [[Telescope]]. All gameplay and character movement continues as normal while looking through the Picto Box, though it temporarily pauses after taking a Pictograph to allow the player to keep or discard the image. Pressing the R button switches to viewing the stored Pictographs or selecting them for deletion.

In {{TWWHD}}, the storage is increased to twelve Pictographs, and the controls are switched so that the R-Stick aims the viewfinder and the L-Stick zooms in and out. The Picto Box also has a new feature which enables Link to take "selfie" Pictographs by pressing the X button; he can then make any of eleven different facial expressions by moving the L-Stick and optionally holding the ZL button. When viewing the stored Pictographs, any that are suitable for making a [[Figurines in The Wind Waker|Figurine]] are marked with a golden [[Carlov]] icon.

Prior to the closure of [[Miiverse]] in 2017, Link could send Pictographs to the service via [[Tingle Bottle]], to be distributed to other players. Pictographs found inside Tingle Bottles can be saved in the Picto Box for later use in the [[Nintendo Gallery]]. The Deluxe Picto Box is not required to save color Pictographs from Tingle Bottles.

In {{TWWHD|-}}, catching a Forest Firefly is no longer required to upgrade to the Deluxe Picto Box.
