CWAC camera library out of memory

I am getting an out of memory trying to take a picture with the CWAC library in android. I am just using a button in the main activity and creating the fragment on the fly.

The preview will come up fine. But when i click the take picture it will crash with out of memory. Can someone suggest how to fix this problem?

CameraFragment cameraFragment = new CameraFragment();

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_shopping);
        //Create the CameraFragment and add it to the layout
        //CameraFragment f = new CameraFragment();
        getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                .add(R.id.container, cameraFragment, TAG_CAMERA_FRAGMENT)
                .commit();

        //Set the CameraHost
        SimpleCameraHost.Builder builder=
                new SimpleCameraHost.Builder(new SimpleCameraHost(this));

        //SimpleCameraHost simpleCameraHost = new SimpleCameraHost(this);
        cameraFragment.setHost(builder.useFullBleedPreview(true).build());

        takePicture = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonPicture);

        //Set an onClickListener for a shutter button
        findViewById(R.id.buttonPicture).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                takePicture();
            }
        });

private void takePicture() {
    CameraFragment f = (CameraFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag(TAG_CAMERA_FRAGMENT);
    if (f != null && f.isVisible()) {
        PictureTransaction xact=new PictureTransaction(f.getHost());

    xact.flashMode(Camera.Parameters.FLASH_MODE_AUTO);
    f.takePicture(xact);
    }
}

This is covered in the documentation. Either use android:largeHeap="true" or have your CameraHost return something closer to 0.0f from maxPictureCleanupHeapUsage().
