iPhone 16 Pro Camera loading delay and corrupted photo

Does anyone else have issues with their iphone 16 Pro camera? My camera sometimes takes time to load. I open the camera app and it takes around 5 seconds to start working. It is showing black screen for around 5 seconds. My older iphone 13 pro camera app was ready to use almost immediately after opening the app. Then yesterday I took a photo and later I realized the photo was just a black screen. I then tried to zoom in and I realized the photo file was partially corrupted... Attached you can see the photo partially exists but half of it is black screen. The camera otherwise works fine and I take photos without issues, but just this one photo was corrupted, which shows it is a software issue. Does apple intend to fix this with an update? Certainly hope so because I am fed up calling apple to complain about their software bugs and other issues...

The problems continue… now after the latest update to 18.2.1 I see another issue: I open the camera and press the shutter (either on the screen or the camera control button) and the phone waits 3-4 seconds until it finally shoots the picture... It is not acceptable for a phone that expensive to have such a delay !!! Is it a processor lag? Is it a bug? iPhones are becoming more and more useless!
