Can't import photos gives me an error message

After updating to IOS 16, I tried importing a video and a photo however, I get this error message from the photos app. Is this a bug with IOS 16 or a bug with the photos app?

as I can email only 5 photos each time to transfer them to my desktop Mac Pro I found another and hopefully temporarily (until an iOS 16.1 fix) alternative with which you can transfer up to 2Gb in 1 time: use https://wetransfer.com


I am using this service for years for all kind of other documents and it works perfectly.


The only disadvantage is that the file get a WeTransfer file name instead of IMG_1234.jpg by your iPhone. Something like

1399D0A7-B54D-4562-8A78-47D57503110E.jpeg


However, once imported in the Photos app the images will be in regular chronological order.


With regards,
