Because of the many types of devices that exist, a developer must check whether a device has a picture camera, and must display a message if the device lacks a camera. The PictureCamera component simplifies developing an application that can work correctly on all devices, by allowing the use of the PictureCamera component without writing a lot of code.
The PictureCamera supports Windows Mobile Professional 5.x and Windows Mobile Standard and Professional 6.0, 6.1, and 6.5.
