Camera service already can read file as base64.

private takePhoto():void {
    let camermaOptions: CameraOptions = {
      quality: 70,
      destinationType: this.camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
      sourceType: 2,
      encodingType: this.camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
      mediaType: this.camera.MediaType.PICTURE,
      correctOrientation: true,
      targetWidth: 1920,
      targetHeight: 1080
    };

    this.camera.getPicture(camermaOptions).then((imageData) => {
      this.imageBase64 = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + imageData;
      // do something
    }, (err) => {
      this.dismiss();
    });
  }

Hello @sonichk Sonichk thanks for your answer, but this function only allows me to select the picture from the library, do you know How can I activate the camera functions to take the picture?
