I use the sample code online for instantiating the camera.

Once the image is grabbed I use UIImageView to show the image to the user.

The problem is that after taking five pictures or so the application crashes!

Has anyone else had any issues with the camera and what did people have to do to fix it?!

Hey i m with solution now check out this code this will allow us to take infinite photos

- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)image editingInfo:(NSDictionary *)editingInfo {
	
	CGImageRef			imageRef = [image CGImage];
	CGImageAlphaInfo	alphaInfo = CGImageGetAlphaInfo(imageRef);
	unsigned char* rawData;
	CGRect thumbRect = CGRectMake(0,0,480,480);

	if (alphaInfo == kCGImageAlphaNone)
		alphaInfo = kCGImageAlphaNoneSkipLast;
	
	CGContextRef bitmap = CGBitmapContextCreate(
												NULL,
												thumbRect.size.width,		// width
												thumbRect.size.height,		// height
												CGImageGetBitsPerComponent(imageRef),	// really needs to always be 8
												//4 * thumbRect.size.width,	// rowbytes
												CGImageGetBytesPerRow(imageRef),
												CGImageGetColorSpace(imageRef),
												alphaInfo
												);
	
	CGContextRotateCTM (bitmap, radians(-90));
	CGContextTranslateCTM (bitmap, -thumbRect.size.width, 0);
	CGContextDrawImage(bitmap, thumbRect, imageRef);
	CGImageRef	ref = CGBitmapContextCreateImage(bitmap);
	image = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:ref];
	CGContextRelease(bitmap);	// ok if NULL
	thumbRect = CGRectMake(0,0,320,430);
	bitmap = CGBitmapContextCreate(
								   NULL,
								   thumbRect.size.width,		// width
								   thumbRect.size.height,		// height
								   CGImageGetBitsPerComponent(imageRef),	// really needs to always be 8
								   //4 * thumbRect.size.width,	// rowbytes
								   CGImageGetBytesPerRow(imageRef),
								   CGImageGetColorSpace(imageRef),
								   alphaInfo
								   );

	CGContextDrawImage(bitmap, thumbRect, ref);
	CGImageRelease (ref);///////////new

	ref = CGBitmapContextCreateImage(bitmap);
	
	image = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:ref];
	
	
	CGContextRelease(bitmap);	// ok if NULL
	CGImageRelease(ref);
	
	NSUInteger width = CGImageGetWidth(imageRef);
	NSUInteger height = CGImageGetHeight(imageRef);
	CGColorSpaceRef colorSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB();
	if(rawData)free(rawData);////////////////new
	rawData = malloc(height * width * 4);
	NSUInteger bytesPerPixel = 4;
	NSUInteger bytesPerRow = bytesPerPixel * width;
	NSUInteger bitsPerComponent = 8;
	CGContextRef contextC = CGBitmapContextCreate(rawData, width, height, bitsPerComponent, bytesPerRow, colorSpace, kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast | kCGBitmapByteOrder32Big);
	CGColorSpaceRelease(colorSpace);
	
	CGContextDrawImage(contextC, CGRectMake(0, 0, width, height), imageRef);
	CGContextRelease(contextC);

	imgView.image =[[[UIImage alloc] initWithData:UIImageJPEGRepresentation(image, 1.0)] autorelease];//Where imgView is the UIImageView

	[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated: YES];
	[picker release];
}
