Camera Preview
Taken (will some mod.) from
http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=63464
pys60 (the full name is python for series 60) 1.1.3
provide both camera and graphics display.
So, it is trivial to take photo and preview.
from appuifw import *
import camera
canvas=Canvas()
app.body=canvas
running=1
def quit():
global running
running=0
app.exit_key_handler=quit
while running:
image = camera.take_photo(size= (160,120))
canvas.blit(image, target=(8, 12, 168, 132)) # center it
Here I use the small size (160x120) for preview. When the real photo is taken I can use the full (defualt) size of (640x480) on my 6600 phone.
