Ever increasing camera delay

I have noticed after the recent updates, the camera load up times have become slower and slower when the camera key is pressed. When the camera would load up instantaneously, also they have removed the last picture taken preview in the lock screen... which is annoying, as I have to unlock my phone to review the image and take it again. Where as it was just one tap, then retake.

However the load times are quite sporadic, for instance I take a picture, put the phone down and then load up the camera.. it loads up almost instantly but sometimes I get "resuming" for a few seconds, a black screen then the Camera UI.

I just hope this this alleviated with the Cyan Firmware update... I have missed a few good pictures at the family gathering yesterday.

Has anyone else noticed this?
 
I have resisted all temptation to install the 8.1 DP, though it's been hard. I really don't want any of the problems I've been reading about like with the camera or battery life. I'm pretty sure Cyan will fix your problems though mate, and maybe I'll be able to try all these new feature out myself.
 
It is pretty hard resisting the temptation but in the end I caved in and installed the developer preview. I use the notification centre pretty much all the time now, anyway cyan is just round the corner. So not long now! lol.
