To start, I opened Instagram on my smartphone and below's just what I saw:
It's a little bit confusing, however the button on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the present sight you have, even though that's certainly a common interface convention. You're on the major feed which is accessed by the home button on the reduced left. Odd, I recognize.
Tap on the camera icon on the bottom-- facility!-- with heaven emphasize. Now your camera will certainly turn on as well as you'll see a preview of the photo you're about to take:
To take a picture, faucet on the blue button. To make a (short) video clip, tap on the video camera icon to the right of the button.

Successive, I'll tweak the Contrast given that I locate that on my iPhone, a minimum of, it's constantly simply a bit less than I like:
Once again, utilize your finger to adjust it with the slider, as well as tap on the check mark to dedicate the adjustment or the "X" to discard it if you change your mind.
