Is the camera app broken or a hardware issue?

A few weeks ago my camera started acting weird. At first the main camera stopped working (there was no image and I could not click on the shutter) but I could use all other settings. Switching to the front camera gave me an image, and I could make photos with the front camera. Changing camera settings random showed a "camera unresponsive" message.
Right now starting the app leads nowhere. I tap the icon but the app doesn't start.
I hardly make photos, but that fact that I can't make any photos annoys me a bit. Do others have these camera issues? Should I send in the phone to examine?
For me the camera did once or twice that but reboot always helped.

I tried rebooting but that doesn't help.
