Restricting Android camera

Question

Hello!
Avoiding having to create a whole camera app myself, I am calling up:

Intent camera = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
this.startActivityForResult(camera, PICTURE_RESULT);

However, the camera is very advanced and beautiful :) but not for my purposes. :(
Is there a way to restrict the camera to control size, resolution, disable setup button, flash, face recognition, etc...?

Sorry but you will be unable to change all these features using the Intents system. For this level of control you will have to create you own camera program.

You can change the autofocus and flash however using the uses tag in the manifest.xml
