Parameters

Remarks

To account for the Windows Phone execution model, initialize the PhotoCamera object in the OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs) method and explicitly call the camera Dispose method during the OnNavigatingFrom(NavigatingCancelEventArgs) method. Add event handlers for the PhotoCamera and CameraButtons events in the OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs) method and remove them in the OnNavigatingFrom(NavigatingCancelEventArgs) method.
