I´m looking for an action to make a photo with build in camera, e.g. make photo every 5secs.

Me too.
If possible it can take snaps without even showing the preview and without any shutter sound (want to spy someone ). Also add facility to select camera (back or front).

Yes! This is what I miss most from Tasker.

Could taking pictures also trigger other events, like opening apps in the background?

Taking a picture without preview when an app is started (trigger App Task Started) would probably be possible but starting an app in the background without showing a user interface is usually not possible on Android.
What app would you like to start in the background?

Hi Martin,

Can you please add this feature of taking snap without showing any preview and shutter sound (can be configurable) with dynamic camera selection option?

Hi,

This action should be available in the next version when testing is successful (front/back cam without user interaction/preview).

Regards,
Martin

Thanks Martin.
