    correctOrientation:true,
    allowEdit: true,
    targetWidth:1024,
    targetHeight:1024,
    sourceType: this.camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA,
    cameraDirection: this.camera.Direction.FRONT, // also i use Numbers also "1"
    destinationType: this.camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
    encodingType: this.camera.EncodingType.PNG,
    mediaType: this.camera.MediaType.PICTURE,

from document:

CameraOptions Errata

Android Quirks

Any cameraDirection value results in a back-facing photo. (= You can only use the back camera)
