It's a little bit confusing, however the switch under that's highlighted in blue? That's not the present sight you have, despite the fact that that's definitely a common user interface convention. You're on the main feed which is accessed by the home button on the lower left. Weird, I recognize.

Tap on the camera symbol on the bottom-- center!-- with heaven emphasize. Now your camera will certainly activate and you'll see a preview of the image you will take:
