Re: Capturing still images in Symbian C++
you can use

            iEncoder = CImageEncoder::FileNewL(*aFs, *aNewFilePathAndName, KMimeType);
            iEncoder->Convert( &iStatus, *iBitmapSave );

www.developer.symbian.com
search for CCamera.
Also check forum.nokia.com, they have a number of white papers which should be able to help.
It's pretty straight forward.
Also see the EMCC book; Developing Series 60 Applications, it has a section covering the camera api's.

Not even the internet can beat a good book for getting a developer up and running.
