shortcut to camera on lock screen?

Is there a way to add a camera icon/shortcut to my lock screen to go straight to the camera without having to first unlock the device (its pass coded) or at least if I remove the passcode, so I don't have to swipe to unlock and then find the camera icon, similar to how its done on the iPhone?

Thanks,
 
Settings, lockscreen, shortcuts. Or if you have motion enabled, you can press the screen and rotate the phone to automatically activate the camera app.
 
Try this one...

Hold your thumb on the lockscreen, then rotate from portrait to landscape. Voila. Camera. :)

With a passcode, I don't think there is anyway to bypass that like on the iphone.
