Faucet on the camera icon on the bottom-- facility!-- with the blue highlight. Currently your camera will activate as well as you'll see a sneak peek of the picture you're about to take:
To take a picture, faucet on the blue button. Making a (short) video, faucet on the video camera icon to the right of the switch. Tap on the left switch and you could access your existing images on the phone (what I typically use, utilizing the normal phone camera app for taking the picture).
