iPhone 12 Camera Zoom Issue

Hi folks!

My iPhone 12 has developed an issue with its zoom on the camera. If I open the camera as normal, the picture is very, very blurred at 1x. If I click 0.5x, it’s clear but obviously very distant from the subject of the photo. If I zoom in manually, it gets to 0.9x no problem but then goes blurry when it gets to 1.0x.

I don’t have a phone case, I have tried to clean the lens numerous times in and restarted multiple times. It’s definitely a software rather than a hardware issue.

any ideas guys?

1.0x is your normal lens, where 0.5x is your wide angle lens and zoom levels between 0.5x and 1x are digital zooms of your wide angle lens.
