It's a bit complicated, however the button under that's highlighted in blue? That's not the existing view you have, even though that's absolutely a typical interface convention. You get on the primary feed which is accessed by the home button on the reduced left. Odd, I understand.

Tap on the camera symbol under-- facility!-- with heaven emphasize. Now your camera will turn on and you'll see a preview of the photo you will take:


To take a picture, faucet on the blue switch. Making a (brief) video, tap on the video camera icon to the right of the button.
