 *  Watching the video first will save you time - it shows the Arduino IDE
 *  settings and the library versions being set up step by step.
 *  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 *  Live camera viewfinder with a touch interface, saving real photos to the
 *  microSD card, each one stamped with the true date and time from the board's
 *  battery-backed RTC.
 *
 *  Three buttons down the right hand side:
 *
 *      SNAP    quick save. Converts the frame already on screen to JPEG.
 *              Instant, 240x240, always works.
 *
 *      3 MP    the real thing. Tears the camera down, brings it back up at
 *              2048x1536 JPEG, takes the shot, and restores the viewfinder.
 *              Takes a couple of seconds. This is the OV3660's full
 *              3 megapixels, not an upscale.
 *
 *      MIRROR  flips the image, for when you turn the board around to point
 *              the lens at someone else.
 *
 *  Photos land on the SD card as  /IMG_260729_143052.jpg
 *
 *  No WiFi, no API keys, no internet.
 *
 *  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *  WHY THE 3 MP BUTTON HAS TO WORK SO HARD
 *  A camera's pixel format is fixed when the driver starts. You can change the
 *  resolution on the fly, but you cannot switch RGB565 (what the screen wants)
 *  to JPEG (what the SD card wants) without restarting the driver. So the
 *  hi-res path deinitialises and reinitialises. That is normal, and it is why
 *  the screen goes black for a moment.
 *
 *  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *  BOARD SETTINGS - see pins.h. In short: ESP32S3 Dev Module, core 2.0.17,
 *  OPI PSRAM, 16MB flash, 16M partition scheme, upload via the CH340K port.
 *
 *  LIBRARIES
 *      GFX Library for Arduino   v1.5.6
 *      bb_captouch               v1.3.1
