Android SDK: Let user choose picture from gallery or camera?

In my project I want to let the user pick a picture either from the gallery or take a new one from the camera. Do I need to create my own menu for the user to choose or is there something built into the SDK that does this already?

Use the below code to put chooser for gallery and Camera together. I really dont know if this will work with startActivityForResult. Give it a try

    Intent galleryintent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT, null);
    galleryintent.setType("image/*");        

    Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);

    Intent chooser = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CHOOSER);
    chooser.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INTENT, galleryintent);      
    chooser.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TITLE, "title");

    Intent[] intentArray =  {cameraIntent}; 
    chooser.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS, intentArray);
    startActivity(chooser);
