I was taking photos in 16:9 format, edited them a little (crop, exposure, auto correct on some), after i wasn't satisfied with some photos, i selected those and clicked Revert to original, and suddenly, all of the selected photos turned black, one by one.
How do i get them back?

iPhone 16, iOS 18
I've never had that happen. I think first, I would try a forced restart:
Force restart iPhone - Apple Support
This is different from a simple Power Off. I had to continue holding the button down past the "slide to power off" message, and then I released the button only after the Apple Logo appeared indicating a re-start.
If that didn't change anything, try "Share>Export Unmodified Original" to the Files app, and see what you get. You can also try sending this copy back to Photos from Files with "Share>Save Image"
Let us know what happens…
Forcing restart didn't help, and it's still happening after. But Exporting unmodified original worked great. Thank you!
Can you maybe try to recreate this:
I only have this Iphone 16 since June. This is my first time i made some edits to photos, since i got it. Somehow this only happens in 16:9 format,so i will just shoot in original format (4:3) from now on, but still, this shouldn't be happening. I will also try to fully restore my phone.
I'm on latest update 18.6.1.
