Camera app causing phone to lag (iPhone 12)

I have an iPhone 12, purchased only 4 months ago. After I take a singular photo (sometimes I can even take 2), my phone

completely freezes for up to 20 seconds. I tested the camera app on my sister’s phone (also an iPhone 12, purchased the exact same time as mine) and it works fine, no lag at all. Does anyone know why this may be?

iPhone SE, iOS 16

I'm having a similar issue... When I open de camera, it slows really hard, no matter if I'm just taking a pic or shooting a video... When I finish, it's struggles to close the app and return to the homescreen.
