Motorcycles and Iphones

I have ridden a motorcycle with my old iphone 6s+ on the handlebar for well over 150,000 miles with no problems. I have very recently purchased a new iphone 11 pro max and was planning on doing the same. I hear this may be a problem in that the vibration is causing the cameras to fail very quickly. If this is true what can be done? what is the mechanism for failure:

Is the camera constantly trying to stabilize and is overwhelmed?

Can I shut it off? Can I cover it?

Or are the moving parts of the camera damaged by the constant vibration?

can i lock them down while riding (small magnet)

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 13

I cannot answer most of the questions you have, but I can address one of them:

This would not be a good idea.
