Mark it correct if it helps.
Cheers,
Yes, you can create your overlay camera view. Just set yourPicker.showsCameraControls=NO; and pass your view to your picker camera overlay view: yourPicker.cameraOverlayView=yourView;
This can be done.
First checkout Access the camera with iPhone SDK for accessing the camera.
Next adding a button can be achieved by setting cameraOverlayView property

Accessing UIImagePickerController Camera's Preview Screen

I am working with a basic UIImagePickerController. I have read about camera overlays and am not ready / don't need to dive into that world yet.
After the user takes a photo, the UIImagePickerController displays a "Preview" screen. All I want to do is change the text on the button on the preview screen from "Use" to "Upload".
It seems to me that there should be a very easy way to access this, but I have found very few references to the "Preview" screen.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
That functionality is not exposed in the SDK. There is no way to customize the Preview screen.

IPhone UIImagepicker with camera showing camera roll thumbnail like default camera app?

im working in iphone's camera app, using UIImagePicker to launch the camera.
Everything goes well, just a need to use the default controls showed in the camera app in iphone(little thumbnail from the last pic in camera roll and take photo buttons) and its animation(take and send the picture to the left bottom thumbnail), not default in UIImagePicker (cancel and take photo buttons).
How i can do that?
thankz :D
You can't do that. What you should do is present a UIActionSheet and ask if the user wants to get a photo from the Camera or their Photo Albums.
You may try to use the cameraOverlayView property or create your own custom controls duplicating the default controls (hiding the default controls with showsCameraControls = NO).

Is it possible to make persistent full-screen camera like System camera app?

I am building a custom camera app, and would like to have the camera view similar to the native camera app in iPhone. (i.e., picks videos as a non-modal view, stays in the camera view after each video taken. I found the retake and use views unnecessary). Is there any possible way to do it? Thanks.
you can't do it for videos at present, but you can do it for still pictures in OS 3.1. if you search for "takePicture" and "cameraOverlayView" you should find helpful information; you can resize the preview window to be any size you like.
