Detecting front facing camera and capturing image, android?

Question

I want to capture image from the front facing camera. Is there a way to detect front facing camera? I searched a lot and the all the answers I found are quite old 2-3 yrs old.

Do I have to make a custom camera for it or is there any other way?
