    Help everyone help you.
    Rooted?
    What build?

    Tried restarting?
    Tried installing Taskiller and closinf all the apps then using the camera?
    etc etc etc.

    You'll probably have to go through some ADB commands which a few of our members here could really help you out.

    try hooking your phone up to your computer and going into the dcim folder on your SD card. when in there delete the .thumbnails folder. Sometimes something in there get messed up and forcing the system to make a new on might fix it.

    if your not rooted, and you're getting camera errors, you may have to do a factory reset, did you get the newest update?

    Before doing a factory reset try erasing the .thumbnails folder on your SD card
    (SD card-->dcim-->.thumbnails)
