You can handle permissions yourself in whatever way you want, but if you make a call to `CameraView.start()` without the `android.permission.CAMERA` permission, an exception would normally be thrown and your app would crash.

With CameraKit, we will automatically prompt for the `android.permission.CAMERA` permission if it's not available. If you want to handle it yourself, just make sure you dont call `CameraView.start()` until you acquire the permissions.

You can use a mix of a fixed dimension (a set value or `match_parent`) as well as `wrap_content`. When you do this make sure you set `android:adjustViewBounds="true"` on the `CameraView`.

When you do this the dimension set to `wrap_content` will automatically align with the true aspect ratio of the preview surface. In this case the whole preview will be visible.

## Capture Mode Behavior
## Capture Methods
We decided to add multiple capture modes to CameraKit to allow you to give a better image capturing experience to users with slower cameras when appropriate.

See [`ckPictureMode`](#ckpicturemode) above for usage.
See [`ckMethod`](#ckmethod) above for usage.
### Quality
### Standard
When you use `PICTURE_MODE_QUALITY` (`camerakit:ckPictureMode="quality"`), images will be captured using the normal camera API capture method using the shutter.
When you use `METHOD_STANDARD` (`camerakit:ckMethod="standard"`), images will be captured using the normal camera API capture method using the shutter.

### Speed
### Still
When you use `PICTURE_MODE_SPEED` (`camerakit:ckPictureMode="speed"`), images will be captured by grabbing a single frame from the preview. This behavior is the same as SnapChat and Instagram. This method has a higher rate of motion blur but can be a better experience for users with slower cameras.
When you use `METHOD_STILL` (`camerakit:ckMethod="still"`), images will be captured by grabbing a single frame from the preview. This behavior is the same as SnapChat and Instagram. This method has a higher rate of motion blur but can be a better experience for users with slower cameras.

## Tap To Focus
## Focus
Along with the always on auto-focus, you can enable tap to focus in your `CameraView`. See [`ckTapToFocus`](#cktaptofocus) for usage. You have the option of having it on with a visible focus marker, on with no marker, or off.
