Getting back to Camera Screen when viewing taken pictures

Need a quick way to return to the camera viewfinder screen.

Reason If you take a picture and then view the taken photo by swiping it can sometimes be difficult to find the active camera screen again, especially if you view back quite through a number of pictures. This is exaggerated if you store a lot of pictures in the Pictures/Camera folder. The quickest way to get to the active camera screen is to close the Camera app and re-open. Minimising does not help. This can be really annoying when you want to capture another scene quickly.

A Suggested Solution It would be far easier if there was a pulley option to take you back to the viewfinder screen. A bottom pulley would be best and this should also be possible with the pictures in full screen mode, also the top pulley is only activated after clicking on a picture and is already quite congested.
