Miles Erickson and Henock Bongi, you need to take reader.readAsDataUrl($data); out of the onload function in order that the onload fire.

If you don't want to use jQuery see below:

function readFile(file) {                                                       
    var reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onload = readSuccess;                                            
    function readSuccess(evt) {     
        document.getElementById("your_img_id").src = evt.target.result                   
    };
    reader.readAsDataURL(file);                                              
} 

document.getElementById('cameraInput').onchange = function(e) {
    readFile(e.srcElement.files[0]);
};
