Iphone 16 Pro Max camera freezes when I do multiple photos

My iPhone 16 Pro Max camera freezes and doesn't respond while I'm taking pics one after another. I close the app, lock the phone and open camera again so it will start working properly. Have you ever encountered such a thing? maybe I should reduce photo quality ?
