iphone 12 camera issue after ios26

The iPhone 12 had a camera issue after updating to iOS 26. The 1x camera produces blurry photographs and has lost focus stability. Apple had failed to maintain proper R&D and did not thoroughly test the aftermath of the update in all handsets that were compatible with it. This has caused hardware damage to previously functional older iPhones. Apple should address this issue and provide a proper solution for its older customers.
