Symin is a member of the [[Sheikah]] tribe, and one of only five located outside of [[Kakariko Village (Breath of the Wild)|Kakariko Village]]. He can be found in the [[Hateno Ancient Tech Lab]], where he develops [[Sheikah]] technology with [[Purah]]. After upgrading Link's [[Sheikah Sensor]], he will give Link a quest to collect 3 [[Sunshroom]]s. Once completed, he will be able to sell Link pictures for the [[Hyrule Compendium]].
When Link first arrives at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, Symin is astonished that Link has a [[Sheikah Slate]].{{Ref|''Good morning. I imagine you've never seen so many books in one place. Pretty incredible, isn't it? We've gathered all of Hyrule's known literature on ancient civilizations here. As for the actual number of books, well... ...Hmm? Is that... That thing on your waist? Is that a Sheikah... There's no mistaking it. That's a real Sheikah Slate, isn't it?! I've never actually seen one in person! If you could just show me the runes on it, I'd be most appreciative.'' - '''Symin'''}} However, he quickly realizes that despite having [[Stasis]], [[Magnesis]], [[Remote Bomb (Rune)|Remote Bomb]]s, and [[Cryonis]], some of the [[Runes]] are missing.{{Ref|''Stasis... Ah. Magnesis... Yes, yes. The Remote Bomb and Cryonis... And what else? Let's see... So that's it for runes... But... Hmmm... Strange... It doesn't seem like you have the basic runes... I don't understand why they're missing. There must be some reason...'' - '''Symin'''}}

Link can then speak with Symin and purchase pictures at the cost of 100 rupees a picture. They are divided into categories, as they appear on the Hyrule Compendium, with sections for Fauna, Enemy, Material, Weapon, and Other pictures. Later in the game, when [[Dark Beast Ganon]] is defeated, extra pictures for 11 Elite Enemies (15 in [[Master Mode]]) can be purchased for 500 rupees a piece. Elite enemies include Silver (4) and Golden (+4 in Master Mode) enemies, [[Master Kohga]] (1), the Blights (4), [[Calamity Ganon]] and [[Dark Beast Ganon]]. Master Mode also includes an extra non-elite enemy [[Sky Octorok]], and the [[EX The Champions' Ballad]] includes another 3 in the form of [[Monk Maz Koshia]], the [[Igneo Talus Titan]] and the [[Molduking]].

When the Hyrule Compendium is completed, Symin gives Link a picture depicting a beautiful woman of the Sheikah Tribe, which is implied to be [[Purah]] in her youth. It wouldn't be until ''Age of Calamity'' that it's shown that Purah was indeed remarkably beautiful.

*Second only to [[Granté]], Symin's selling of pictures for the Hyrule Compendium are among the most expensive commodities available in the whole game. However, the price varies depending on how many pictures one adds to the Compendium. However, even though Granté's items are the most expensive per unit, Symin's total stock is more expensive.

*Buying pictures from Symin is the fastest way to complete the Hyrule Compendium, as the task of searching for creatures and items to photographs takes a considerably amount of time and effort, with subjects that may be notoriously difficult to capture, like insects.
