I had LOS native camera and gcam. I only noticed problems with the later one. I uninstalled gcam, because I didn't get it working. The LOS native camera seems to be working.
I think I figured it out. You can't have the OOS cam and Gcam at the same time. I've wiped both apps and reinstalled only the Gcam. I've taken a bunch of test pictures since yesterday and I haven't had a single issue. So is it possible that every single person here who had this problem also had the OOS cam installed?

Just to add my findings.

I am currently running March 6th Los 16. Gcam is working as expected. From March 12th and onwards Gcam stops saving pics after a couple of shots. I haven't tried the build between 6 and 12 of March.

When I was on later builds, I had only Gcam installed and no other camera. The only way to make it work is roll back to March 6th build.

You can find more people with this issue in Lineage os telegram channel found in the OP of LineageOs thread in this sub forum

Yeah you're right. It was working the whole day but I've tried a second ago and the problem is back. So i guess we have to wait for a build that fixes the issue?

What about the shutter button? Have you experienced any unusual delays or double-taps to make it work? I had this issue before. I really hope that the LOS devs are considering this as a bug that's worth fixing. The Snap camera is way too cluttered (even in the new version) and the picture quality doesn't come close to what you can achieve with the Gcam or even the stock oneplus camera.

I haven't had OOS camera installed ever. But I'll try updating LOS and wiping the camera apps.

No i Can just enable it in settings. It automatically launch default op camera without any prompt to select different.
Then install a new camera app. Any app. (even twitter / snapchat) then try triggering the camera via double tap.

You see ? That worse one is GCAM and I don't know why.
which one is which?

1st one has better color imo, but 2nd got way more dynamic range.

something like color option of the focus point when you took the picture. 2nd one should be very easy to edit in google photo or snapseed.
