Bug Report

Problem

What is expected to happen?

I expected camera plugin to return BASE64 data so I can send it and save it on server.

What does actually happen?

On device, this.camera.getPicture(options) fails with error message:

Cannot read property ‘present’ of undefined

Same thing happens if I use CAMERA or PHOTOLIBRARY as sourceType

Command or Code

imported
import { Camera } from '@ionic-native/camera/ngx';

injected in constructor
constructor(public camera: Camera) { }

and then used in my upload() method

let options = {
      quality: 100,
      destinationType: this.camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
      encodingType: this.camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
      mediaType: this.camera.MediaType.PICTURE,
      sourceType: this.camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA,
      saveToPhotoAlbum: false,
      correctOrientation: false
};
this.camera.getPicture(options).then((imageData) => {
let base64Image = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + imageData;
      this.sendToServer(base64Image);
    }).catch(err => {
      console.log(err.message);
    });

Environment, Platform, Device

Xiaomi Mi 8 - Android 10
Samsung Galaxy A3 - Android 6
