Hello erjonesx,
This page here can help out with providing some steps that may be able to help with camera-related issues on your device: If the camera or flash on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch isn't working - Apple Support
This will include things like disconnecting any case, film or accessory that may be on the iPad, and see if that's helped.
It could be a hardware-related issue, though the page lists the following steps to try before reaching out to Apple Support to explore options:
1. If the photo is blurry, clean the front and back camera lenses with a microfiber cloth. If you see dirt or debris inside the lens or if the camera lens appears to be misaligned or blocked, contact Apple Support to discuss service options.
2. Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
3. Test the camera again by taking a photo. If your device has a front and rear camera, check if one or both isn’t working. To switch cameras, tap the rotate button.
Cheers.
