Yes. Can be taken by pressing a button or by voice command. The button can be configured.
Composition:
The photo composition is always vertical, never as horizontal.
Formats:
HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container format) - provides better compression than JPEG.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group format) - widely supported image format.
Quality:
Decent, but with poor details. It has less quality compared to a smartphone camera, DSLR or Mirrorless.

The user needs to stay still for a while until the photo is taken, otherwise, the image will be blurred.
Need permission to access camera functionality on the connected wearable device, through Meta App.
