 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Note that the CameraSource's {@link CameraSource#start()} or
 * {@link CameraSource#start(SurfaceHolder)} has to be called and the camera image has to be
 * showing prior using this method as the CameraSource only creates the camera after calling
 * one of those methods and the camera is not available immediately. You could implement some
 * kind of a callback method for the SurfaceHolder that notifies you when the imaging is ready
 * or use a direct action (e.g. button press) to set the focus mode.

 * which contains the method <code>startIfReady()</code> that has the following line:
 * <blockquote><code>mCameraSource.start(mSurfaceView.getHolder());</code></blockquote><br>
 * After this call you can use our <code>cameraFocus(...)</code> method because the camera is ready.

This isn't necessary anymore... or am I missing something?
