Take picture without preview screen?

CallCam Pro (there's a "Lite" version, but the Pro works much better). It makes folks think you're on a phone call (even with a "Call" screen, if you want) but takes a series of pictures surrepetitiously:)

I setup a task in Tasker to do this (minus the fake call screen). I tap a widget on the home screen and it takes a series of pictures for one minute while remaining on the home screen, or displaying whatever app I use after tapping the widget. It works well. If only I could stop that click-click-click of the Droid's auto focus.
