I’m working on a universal app that uses the camera on iOS devices and which will require iOS5+.

I’m trying to sort out the whole how many cameras/what size images possible/video capable compatibility issues. After searching around a bit it occurs to me that someone might have either collected the data in an easily accessible form for all this stuff – or even better, written some routines to use at runtime. I need to do the standard stuff – figuring out how many cameras, image resolutions, etc.

I know all this info is available through the API with some digging around. Before I reinvent this wheel, has anyone written this sort of thing already?

    This should be exactly what you are looking for:

    That said, if you are using something like a UIImagePicker, it has it’s own functions like:

    if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera])
