I got the camera on my Raspberry Pi working. It was rather simple. Using Raspbian, I just had to enable the camera (run sudo raspi-config), then figure out the code. Here is a simple program I wrote, just to record the commands for the camera:
*******************
import time
import picamera
camera = picamera.PiCamera()
# Use to view current picture from camera on screen connected to
# the Raspberry Pi. Not for use with ssh.
#camera.start_preview()
# Use when ribbon of camera is on the top of the camera. Make 'False'
# if the ribbon is on the bottom of the camera.
camera.vflip = True
camera.hflip = True
camera.brightness = 60
# Capture a single image
camera.capture('image.jpg')
# Capture a video
camera.start_recording('video3.h264')
time.sleep(5) # Length of video
camera.stop_recording()
*******************
