Correct way to customize media capture here using Assets Library.
Simple way (in some cases) is using overlay view with frame size of whole screen and add controls on that view which simulate navigation bar.
if (_pickerOverlay == nil) {
_pickerOverlay = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];
//red transparent tint for demo
_pickerOverlay.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1.0
green:0.0
blue:0.0 alpha:0.6];
UIButton *btnBack = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeSystem];
btnBack.frame = CGRectMake(20, 20, 250, 40);
[btnBack setTitle:#"Custom buttom" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
btnBack.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[_pickerOverlay addSubview:btnBack];
}
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
picker.showsCameraControls = NO;
picker.cameraOverlayView = _pickerOverlay;
[self presentViewController:picker animated:YES completion:nil];
