This is the example of camera view for iOS written in Swift

CameraViewController.swift

import UIKit
import AVFoundation

class ViewController: UIViewController, AVCaptureMetadataOutputObjectsDelegate {

    @IBOutlet weak var myView: UIView!
    
    var session: AVCaptureSession?
    var device: AVCaptureDevice?
    var input: AVCaptureDeviceInput?
    var output: AVCaptureMetadataOutput?
    var prevLayer: AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer?
    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        createSession()
    }
    
    override func viewDidAppear(animated: Bool) {
        super.viewDidAppear(animated)
        prevLayer?.frame.size = myView.frame.size
    }
    
    func createSession() {
        session = AVCaptureSession()
        device = AVCaptureDevice.defaultDeviceWithMediaType(AVMediaTypeVideo)
        
        var error: NSError? = nil
        input = AVCaptureDeviceInput(device: device, error: &error)
        if error == nil {
            session?.addInput(input)

        prevLayer?.frame.size = myView.frame.size
        prevLayer?.videoGravity = AVLayerVideoGravityResizeAspectFill
        
        prevLayer?.connection.videoOrientation = transformOrientation(UIInterfaceOrientation(rawValue: UIApplication.sharedApplication().statusBarOrientation.rawValue)!)
        
        myView.layer.addSublayer(prevLayer)
        
        session?.startRunning()
    }

    func cameraWithPosition(position: AVCaptureDevicePosition) -> AVCaptureDevice? {
        let devices = AVCaptureDevice.devicesWithMediaType(AVMediaTypeVideo)

            }, completion: { (context) -> Void in
                
        })
        super.viewWillTransitionToSize(size, withTransitionCoordinator: coordinator)
    }
    
    func transformOrientation(orientation: UIInterfaceOrientation) -> AVCaptureVideoOrientation {
        switch orientation {
        case .LandscapeLeft:
            return .LandscapeLeft
        case .LandscapeRight:
            return .LandscapeRight
        case .PortraitUpsideDown:

        default:
            return .Portrait
        }
    }
    
    @IBAction func switchCameraSide(sender: AnyObject) {
        if let sess = session {
            let currentCameraInput: AVCaptureInput = sess.inputs[0] as! AVCaptureInput
            sess.removeInput(currentCameraInput)
            var newCamera: AVCaptureDevice
            if (currentCameraInput as! AVCaptureDeviceInput).device.position == .Back {
                newCamera = self.cameraWithPosition(.Front)!
            } else {
