Scaled live iPhone Camera view in center, "CGAffineTransformTranslate" not working

I have a little problem which I could not solve. I really hope someone can help me with that. I wanted to resize the live camera view and place it in the center, using the following code below:

    picker.cameraViewTransform = CGAffineTransformScale(picker.cameraViewTransform, 0.5, 0.56206);
    picker.cameraViewTransform = CGAffineTransformTranslate(picker.cameraViewTransform, 80, 120);

But all I got was a scaled 1/2 sized view on the top left of the screen. It seems as though "CGAffineTransformTranslate" does nothing at all. The translation didn't work even when I used:

     picker.cameraViewTransform = CGAffineTransformMake(1, 0, 0, 1, 80, 120);

The translation portion seems to have no effect on the live camera view. Hope someone can enlighten me.

Thanks.

I was in the same boat. What I did was physically move the picker frame.

[picker.view setFrame:CGRectMake(xOffset,yOffset,picker.view.frame.size.width,picker.view.frame.size.height)];

I've been banging my head against the same problem. I have confirmed that scaling and rotating the preview works, but translations appear to be ignored. I would speculate that the tx, ty portions of the CGAffineTransform are being ignored when the transform is set. This is with iPhone OS v3.1.2. I don't have other OS versions to test against right now.
