    I am having the same problem. Since the 8.2 release update my rear camera won't focus. It does when it is like 12 inches far to the object I am trying to take a picture of. There is a huge dramatic difference from the pictures I have before the release update. My other half also have the Iphone 6 and haven't updated it due to fear of having it with same problem. The outlined suggestion does not work at all. I hope the next update fixes this issue.

    I'm having the exact same issue. All of the sudden it stopped working. I would shake the phone and try to take a picture about 10x and maybe once it would focus. Or I would keep closing down the camera app and reopening until it would work. Such a bummer. I guess I'll take it into the Genius Bar to see what magic they can work.
